New studies highlight the failures of GM Cotton
We return to GM Cotton as the focus of this weeks podcast. BT cotton is hyped as the big GM success story. Yet a recent series of studies have shown that the claims for GM Cotton are baseless.

Rifkin's innovative ideas have been vigorously attacked by powerful GM lobby groups and scientific institutions that have vested interests in GM
