Excerpt from The Potential Environmental Consequences of Genetic Engineering The subcommittee met, at 10:08 a.m., in room SD-406. Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Dave Durenberger (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Present: Senator Durenberger. Opening Statement of Hon. Dave Durenberger, U.S. Senator from The State Of Minnesota Senator Durenberger. The hearing will come to order. Good morning everyone. Today and again on Thursday morning we will consider a subject that not very long ago fell into the realm of science fiction: the subject of genetic engineering and its potential consequences on our environment. Genetic engineering is one aspect of the burgeoning biotechnology industry, an industry that uses and alters living organisms to create products. By manipulating genetic material, scientists can now deliberately redraw the fundamental blueprints of living things. That is an awesome prospect. A chance to improve the quality of life worldwide. New bacteria that will clean up oil spills, produce rare drugs, and create super crops that resist disease and make their own fertilizer. What better use of science than to protect our environment, cure the sick, and feed the hungry? We are enthusiastic and optimistic about this new technology, and we should be. But we are also a little wary and a little frightened. And I suppose we should be. Do we really understand the consequences of these powerful new tools? In our haste to gain the obvious benefits, might we cause unintended harm? Let me mention one example I have come across in my reading. Apparently scientists are working to create a bacterium that digests lignin, a component of plant cells that resists decomposition. If an organism can be engineered to break down lignin, then plant material will yield more energy in a biomass conversion system. We would be one step closer to an alternative energy supply.

Genetically modified plants are currently causing controversy worldwide; a great deal has been written about their supposed environmental effects. However, the newspaper headlines and public debates often provide a level of reasoning akin to "this is your brain on genetically modified corn," which is to say, they exclude or exaggerate the actual scientific research on the impacts of these plants. Genetically Modified Planet goes beyond the rhetoric to investigate for concerned consumers the actual state of scientific research on genetically modified plants. Stewart argues that while there are indeed real and potential risks of growing engineered crops, there are also real and overwhelmingly positive environmental benefits.

Transgenic crops offer the promise of increased agricultural productivity and better quality foods. But they also raise the specter of harmful environmental effects. In this new book, a panel of experts examines: • Similarities and differences between crops developed by conventional and transgenic methods • Potential for commercialized transgenic crops to change both agricultural and nonagricultural landscapes • How well the U.S. government is regulating transgenic crops to avoid any negative effects. Environmental Effects of Transgenic Plants provides a wealth of information about transgenic processes, previous experience with the introduction of novel crops, principles of risk assessment and management, the science behind current regulatory schemes, issues in monitoring transgenic products already on the market, and more. The book discusses public involvementâ€"and public confidenceâ€"in biotechnology regulation. And it looks to the future, exploring the potential of genetic engineering and the prospects for environmental effects.

Genetic-based animal biotechnology has produced new food and pharmaceutical products and promises many more advances to benefit humankind. These exciting prospects are accompanied by considerable unease, however, about matters such as safety and ethics. This book identifies science-based and policy-related concerns about animal biotechnologyâ€"key issues that must be resolved before the new breakthroughs can reach their potential. The book includes a short history of the field and provides understandable definitions of terms like cloning. Looking at technologies on the near horizon, the authors discuss what we know and what we fear about their effectsâ€"the inadvertent release of dangerous microorganisms, the safety of products derived from biotechnology, the impact of genetically engineered animals on their environment. In addition to these concerns, the book explores animal welfare concerns, and our societal and institutional capacity to manage and regulate the technology and its products. This accessible volume will be important to everyone interested in the implications of the use of animal biotechnology.
