We should not be tamper nature with genetic engineering

Genetics engineering is laboratory technique used by scientists to change the DNA of living organisms. Because it modifies living organisms in some ways, we should not use it for several reasons. Firstly, when used in food or crop production, it may be dangerous to human health. Secondly, it puts nature off balance. Thirdly, it’s not clear that who will be take responsibility if it has influence in the negative way.

Genetics engineering is risky. When we eat genetically modified products, it has negative effects on our health. For example, in1989-1990, Chowadengo KK Company of Japan introduced a certain type of food supplement that was produced by genetics engineering. The bacteria in this food supplement caused 37 deaths, disabled 1,500 persons and 5,000 people received the treatment in hospital.

Supporters of genetic engineering often look at it from scientific point of view and not from nature perspectives. Genetics engineering is wrong in nature. Even though it can make living things increase in nature but those living thing are less perfect than living thing of nature. There is no way for synthetic to be better than nature.

Lastly and most importantly, we should not tamper nature with genetics engineering because it’s not clear who will be take responsibility if it has influences in the negative way. For example, at present, we have many kinds of food from genetics engineering. Something is real but something is synthetic. When we eat food supplement from genetics engineering, we don’t know whether it’s real or synthetic. If it has influences in the negative way, we can’t identify who will be take responsibility.

In conclusion, it’s better if we do not tamper nature with genetics engineering because it’s a risk on human lives. It’s also not clear that who will be take responsibility if it has influences in the negative way. Therefore, we should not tamper nature through genetic engineering.
