Subject: 88 percent of Scientists say GMO food is safe


West Central MN
Very interesting article came out today showing the vast differences found between Scientists and the general American public when they were polled.

http://www.startribune.com/nation/290228251.html

Here are some highlights:

88% of Scientists say that it is safe to eat GMO foods. 37% of the public say it is safe

68% of Scientists say that it is safe to eat food grown with pesticides. 28% of the public say it is safe.

87% of Scientists say that Global warming is due to human activity. 50% of the public say it is due to human activity.

98% of Scientists say that man has evolved over time. 65% of the public agree.

There are a few other interesting findings in the article as well but I though the above were the most surprising to me.
