Extractions: AGRICULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT BIOTECHNOLOGY COMMISSION HORIZON SCANNING SUB-GROUP NOTE OF A MEETING ON 24 APRIL 2001 AT THE HUB, EDINBURGH WITH MEMBERS OF THE ENGINEERING GENESIS WORKING GROUP OF THE SOCIETY RELIGION AND TECHNOLOGY PROJECT OF THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND Note: These are the views of the sub-group, not necessarily those of the full Commission Engineering Genesis Working Group of the Church of Scotland Society Religion and Technology Project John Eldridge Michael Northcott AEBC Julie Hill (Convenor) ChiChi Iweajunwa Derek Langslow Roger Turner Anne Packer (Secretary) Julie Hill welcomed the members of the Engineering Genesis Working Group of the Society, Religion and Technology Project (SRT) of the Church of Scotland for an informal discussion. She outlined the origin of the AEBC and described the horizon scanning groups work, which was one of the three major work-streams for the Commission within its strategic overview of biotechnology for agriculture and the environment. The group aimed to publish a paper by the end of 2001. The AEBC group welcomed the opportunity for discussions with the Church of Scotland group, which had the benefit of considerable experience. AEBC would particularly welcome input on particular aspects to keep in mind during its work. Donald Bruce described the work of the Church of Scotland SRT Project since its establishment in 1970, using slides which are attached as an annex to this note. The Engineering Genesis working group was set up in December 1993 to study the ethical and social implications of genetic engineering in animals, plants and micro-organisms, which were seen as an important emerging issue in technology.
Science, Politics And Ethics » 2005 » August good reasons for the developemtn of the science of agriculture biotechnology . Therefore agric technologies will no doubt have its negatve aspect but http://politics.scienceboard.net/archives/2005/08/
Extractions: Well above is a tonic so let us now go into GM crops.Some commentators as well as politicians have condemned it. I can remember sometime ago when one country refused GM food inspite of his people facing starvation with the excuse that GM foods kills! So what are GM crops/foods? How are they produced? Any side effects? Should the world embrace it? Does the politicians have the right to tell me what to eat and not? As I argued in one of my articles, everything has its problem.Cars pollute the air, people get killed in accidents but still only few people unlike myself wants to be without an automobile. Therefore agric technologies will no doubt have its negatve aspect but we have to give the agric scientists the chance to develop them for making them require human ingenuity.Politicians should allow people does what they want to eat, for I promise on my life that if the starving people of Niger are asked do you need GM food? 100% of them will say yes! But from a personal point of view I believe politicians prefer to see people in misery for it helps them in the political games. Comments (0) Has technology exacted an inhumanizing toll on society, thereby compromising our most cherished ethics and values? Or, do the latest high-tech fads only uncover ethical quandaries and dilemmas that already existed but were previously constrained by technical limitations? Here is your chance to debate current events and controversial issues in science and medicine.

It includes interviews (audio) with keynote and other speakers, abstracts and viewpoints on conference sessions, and good links to other pages. In viewpoints there is one editorial, "Food and Culture of Biotechnology" that equates biotechnology with death. In the interviews there is discussion of intellectual property, the benefits for developing countries, and how to guide biotechnology and policy development. www.biotech-info.net/gordon_conway.html This is a transcript of a speech by Gordon Conway, "The Rockefeller Foundation and Plant Biotechnology." It addresses the backlash against plant biotechnology, how development in third world countries is poorly equipped for rapid change, the 'terminator technology,' food security in a globalized world, actions to improve research and development in developing countries, and devising a new way to talk about biotechnology. www.usda.gov/news/releases/1999/07/0285

Extractions: EDUCATION Tutorials in Animal Welfare Research ANSC 551 This course will consist of 8 tutorials run with an instructor and a small group of students. Each week students will be set readings covering key topics in the field of animal welfare. Students will be expected to write a short essay on the readings and then discuss their essay and the readings during the tutorial session. Students will be set readings covering key topics in the field of animal welfare. Students write a short , critical essay on the readings and then discuss their essay and the readings during the tutorial session. Essays should be no more than 3 pages double-spaced, and must be submitted to the instructor by 10 am on the Monday of the tutorial session. See example essay topics below. Evaluation: Essays will be marked according to the following criteria: A - Solid understanding of the details of the papers. Perceptive critical comments, clearly thought out, expressed and supported, on several important points. B - Solid understanding of the details of the papers. Perceptive critical comments on some points, leaving scope for clearer thinking or explanation.
IPMnet News While IPMnet NEWS holds no special brief for biotechnology as such, its impactand increasing JRNL. OF agric. AND ENVIRON. ethics, 14(2), 161168, 2001. http://www.ipmnet.org/IPMnet_NEWS/news103.html
Extractions: produces and provides IPMnet NEWS as a free, electronic, global, IPM Information resource. Note: Coincidentally, two major reports concerning biotech crops were released recently. While IPMnet NEWS holds no special brief for biotechnology as such, its impact and increasing presence clearly affect the future application and adoption of IPM. Thus, information about these two biotech-related reports follows. Sharply increase crop production on the same amount; significantly reduce the annual volume of pesticide applied; and generate truckloads of additional cash for agriculture. It's a win-win-win combination that reads like a proponent's wildest hope, but is, in reality, the prediction of an expert group based on extensive results from 40 studies of 27 biotech crops all across the U.S.A.
