Definitely one of the better examples of good journalism I've read recently. The article is a good tutorial on pretty much all the standard GMO talking points and the responses from each side. A lot of direct quotes including several from UH scientists.
Kudos to Greggor, not only to listening carefully to what the scientists were telling him, but also to go out into the wider world for more information and then critically and rationally evaluating where the evidence lies. Not feeling very positive about our representative Zendo Kern who seems to pay more attention to a loud crowd then to the facts of the issue and the long term effects of this legislation on agriculture on the Big Island, certainly here in Puna.
