Nobels With No Worries

In a remarkable show of scientific solidarity, 110 Nobel Prize winners have stated their support for genetically-modified organisms ("GMOs"), in general, and Golden Rice, in particular, as safe, environmentally-friendly, and useful.  To summarize their views, GMOs and Golden Rice are
  • GMOs are safe
  • GMOs are green
  • GMOs are especially important for small farmers.
Perhaps the most fascinating appendix to the Nobel winners' statement is a group of former GMO skeptics who now support the use of genetic modification in agriculture.
