Take Back The FlourUK scientists working to develop genetically modified wheat at Rothamsted Research in Harpenden, Herts are facing a problem -- but it is not a problem with their research, rather it's protestors potentially ruining their experiments. The team is working on a wheat that is genetically modified to deter aphids, and a group called Take the Flour Back has vowed to "decontaminate" the site unless the research is halted. The protestors hold that the strain could spread nationwide, which would put non GM crops at risk and pose potential health issues to those that consume it....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/gm-wheat-a-health-risk-or-a-way-to-feed-the-world/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
