  • Rich people abusing their power to gain some kind of an advantage over others somehow

  • People abusing the new technology to edit themselves or their progeny

  • Possible genetic diseases caused by mutations

  • People consenting to being experimented on without knowing the implications

  • Environmental Destruction

  • Genetic Engineering eradicating genetic diseases

  • GMO could help with food shortages all around the world

  • Examples: editing cows to produce more meat, editing crops to yield more product, creating more resilient organisms that are easier to take care of

  • Helping cure cancer

  • If editing our crops or animals results in a mutation that wasn't intended, then that could cause a shift in the food chain. Possibly irreversibly changing our ecosystem.

  • Depending on how widespread the usage of biotechnology is, many jobs could become irrelevant due to increased crop production or efficiency.
