【新唐人2011年4月30日讯】“绿色和平”组织近日表示，在大陆市售的婴儿食品中发现了转基因成分。转基因是什么？转基因的农作物对生态和人体有什么影响？国际上和中国大陆在对待转基因食品上是怎么做的？大陆民众如何对待：当局许可的大面积种植转基因水稻？请看详细报导。
国际环保组织：“绿色和平”近日公布了在大陆市售的婴儿食品、速食米饭等食品中，发现有转基因成分。他们从2010年底到2011年4月，在北京、武汉、仙桃、广州和香港等地的市面上，随机取样婴儿食品、速食米饭及米粉，进行了转基因成分检测。
绿色和平食品与农业专案主任方立锋：“花了有几个月的调查吧，总共取得一百多个样品，然后发现有十个检出了转基因成分。情况还是很严重的，国外的一些权威机构，比如英国的皇家学会，任何婴儿食品转基因成分要接受最严格的审查。”
“转基因技术”可以使生物体的一些原始特征发生改变，并且可以遗传给后代。生物学家最早利用转基因技术，是希望培育出高产、抗病毒、抗虫、抗除草剂等的新品种。
但是在实际生产中和科学实验中，人们也发现了转基因作物的危害性。
维也纳大学兽医学教授岑太克（Juergen Zentek）2009年研究发现，在持续20周以上，使用含33％的转基因玉米喂养的小白鼠，从第三代开始后代的体重、体长和数量明显减少。
而美国农民曾报告说，他们饲养的成千上万只猪吃了转基因玉米饲料后，都不能生殖了，有的猪出现假孕，生下来一袋子水。印度哈里亚纳邦的调查表明，大多数吃了转基因棉籽的水牛有并发症，如早产、流产、不育并子宫脱垂。而在很多国家，种植转基因玉米的农田里没有老鼠，因为都死光了。
在最早大面积种植转基因农作物的南美洲各国，近年来不断有媒体曝光，当地居民生下的孩子接连都是先天畸形。
南美受害者索菲亚：“在中毒之前我们曾是一个幸福的家庭，我们曾经拥有自己的植物和果树，但我们现在什么都失去了，包括我的弟弟。一位医生告诉我不能生小孩，最少10年不能生，否则都是先天畸形，是因为中毒的缘故。”
目前，世界粮农组织、卫生组织、经济合作组织等权威机构，以及115个国家的250个消费者协会，没有一个宣布说，他们认为转基因食品是安全的。“绿色和平”组织曾警告各国政府要加强对转基因食品安全性的研究，同时呼吁立即停止任何转基因粮食作物的商业化审批和种植。
但是，2009年年底，中共当局批准许可了两种转基因水稻并开始广泛种植。中国作为全球最大的水稻生产国和消费国，也就成为了全球第一个转基因水稻商业化的国家，这引发了很多中国人的担忧和反对。尤其是农业部还宣称，转基因稻米在三五年内将成为中国人的主食。
大陆食品安全专家叶永茂认为，转基因食品含毒素，能引起人类得癌症、器官畸形，甚至会让人类的基因发生突变，遗害后代子孙，所以现在许多国家抵制转基因食品上市。
台湾明道大学校长陈世雄教授，也担任台湾有机产业促进协会理事长，他认为，人类无力承受转基因食品给人类带来毁灭性的灾难，他把食品安全和国土安全放到了同一个重要的水准上。
台湾明道大学校长陈世雄：“这些东西都是对人类前途和未来都是有一个很大的危机存在，就是要避免这种科技运用了以后，最后会导致我们人类的后代，甚至于现代的人类的福祉和健康（受伤害）。”
绝大多数中国网友和民众也强烈反对转基因食品。
“这是非常可怕的一件事，你到底想给中国人民带来什么？”“这是大问题，现在社会上讲了，这是亡国灭种的问题！”

Expert: GM Food Will Destroy China
Green Peace said genetically modified (GM) ingredients
were found in commercial baby foods in China .
What is GM? How will it affect ecology and human body?
How is it treated internationally and in China?
What can people do when China allows large-scale
cultivation of GM rice? Let’s look at the detailed reports.
Green Peace recently announced the finding of GM in
commercially available baby foods, instant rice and
other food products in China. From the end of 2010
to April 2011, they randomly sampled baby foods,
instant rice and noodles in Beijing, Wuhan, Xiaotao,
Guangzhou and Hong Kong to detect GM ingredients.
Fang Lifeng (Green Peace Food & Agricultural Officer):
“We spent several months to sample about 100 products,
GM ingredients were found in ten samples. It is very
serious. According to British Royal Society, to include
GM ingredients in baby foods must be seriously reviewed."
GM technology can change original features of organisms,
which can inherit to next generations. The first use of GM
technology is to breed new varieties which are high-yield,
anti-virus, insect resistant and hardy to herbicides.
GM crops are found harmful in production and scientific
experiments.
Professor Juergen Zentek in Veterinary Medicine,
University of Vienna found in 2009, for mice fed with
33% GM corn for 20 weeks or longer, the 3rd generations
decreased in weight, length and population.
。
U.S. farmers have reported thousands of pigs fed with
GM corn could not reproduce. Some had false pregnancy
and gave birth to a pouch of water. India Haryana Survey
showed most buffalos fed with GM cottonseeds had
complicating diseases, such as premature delivery,
miscarriage, infertility and uterine prolapse.
In many countries, mice die off in GM maize fields.
GM crops were first cultivated in South America.
Babies were reportedly with congenital malformation.
Victim Sofia in South America said, “We used to be
a happy family with our own plants and fruit trees.
Now we lost everything, including my brother.
Doctor said I should not get pregnant in next 10 years,
or the baby will be congenitally malformed. “
Currently FAO, WHO, ECO and other authorities,
as well as 250 Consumer Associations in 115 countries,
none has announced saying GM food is safe.
Green Peace warned governments to strengthen research
on GM food safety, and called for an immediate
cessation of GM crops commercialization and planting.
At the end of 2009, Chinese authorities approved two
GM rices for planting. As the world’s largest rice producer
and consumer, China became the first to commercialize
GM rice, which sparked many concerns and opposition
of Chinese people. Ministry of Agriculture announced
GM rice would become major foods of China in 3 years.
Ye Yongmao, an expert of Food safety in China said,
GM foods contain toxins causing cancer and organ
abnormalities, even genes mutation, which will harm
next generations. GM food is forbidden in many countries.
Professor Chen Shixiong, president of Taiwan Mingdao
University and chairman of the Taiwan Organic Industry
Promotion Association said, human beings can’t
afford the catastrophe brought by GM foods. He put
food safety on the same level with Homeland Security.
Chen Shixiong: “GM foods is a great crisis for mankind’s
future, we should prevent this technology from eventually
hurting our well-beings and health.”
The overwhelming majority of Chinese netizens and
citizens strongly oppose GM foods.
