Some 400 international scientists concluded that in future we must farm in ways which increase diversity of cropping to improve food security.and rely less on artificial fertilizers (made from fossil fuels).as oil becomes scarcer and more expensive.The development of cloned animals dramatically narrows the genetic base on which our food production relies,just when we need to widen it.Cloned dairy and beef cattle are designed for maximum meat and milk output,but that requires massive inputs of grain and soya.Cattle should eat grass we can't eat,not grain we can.Soya increasingly comes from cleared rainforests.
This is the wrong direction not just for farming,but for the planet.For human health,no evidence of danger is not the same as safe.There's been no long term safety testing of meat or milk from cloned cattle—if business interests get their way,there never will be.It is a scandal that we're even considering cloning animals,given that we already know that terrible suffering it imposes on surrogate mothers and the many cloned offspring where things go wrong.On this,the public are right.
