the potential benefits are, what the potential risks are, and what the evidence there
is (so far) about their safety for people and the planet. We'll finish up with a discussion of GMO labeling, how to avoid GMOs when shopping, and what we can all do to get more involved. Speaker Becky Talyn: "Of many hats--including mother; Dr. Becky
