Simple Solutions

The global crisis cannot be overstressed, especially climate wise. We already believe that we can solve big problems with simple solutions; it does not call for rocket science. But at the same time, we have to be careful with how we bring in the simple solutions not to blow the situation out of proportion.
The other day one article author talked of how near we are to the day when humans will only have to sit out in the sun to make their lunch!(after inserting the chlorophyll gene on our skin) That’s how reductionistic we can go; I mean how possible is that? Bearing in mind the other physiological and anatomical systems of the body.
GMOs will not solve our problems. This is evident in the statistics which show the cost of the technology compared with losses caused by some of the aspects being manipulated by the GMOs.So why not approach the subject with care and sobriety it deserves?
