The choices we make as a society can drastically affect the evolution of other species. Human intervention in the selective breeding of animals for a desired trait, injecting growth hormones into animals for a more rapid generation time or injecting a fruit or vegetable for a result of a more bountiful harvest or a more perfect shape or brighter color. In doing this we are creating permanent damage to these organisms and potential damage to ourselves every day by consuming this altered state of these things.. Unfortunately, there is a lot of money to be made in this business. There are many families that must chose the lower priced items in the grocery store than most likely will be the GMO product. And so the cycle will inevitably continue.
