text: According to Entine, the last year has seen a realization among many in the media that the case against GMOs is without merit. The European Union is moving toward allowing more of the technology, and even India will soon allow GMO trials. The New Yorker recently ran an article that was critical of anti-GMO crusader Vandana Shiva, and even Mother Jones's series of articles dealing with the safety of GMO foods did not find much to worry about. Entine references a recent article in an Italian science journal, compiling some 1,783 studies done in the last decade about biotechnology. Researchers found "little to no evidence" that GM crops have a negative environmental impact on their surroundings.
