Prince Charles warns of ‘disaster’ on GM food (AFP)
Speaking to The Daily Telegraph, the Prince of Wales added that relying put on "gigantic corporations" against food production, rather than small farmers, would lead to an "absolute disaster".
"What we should be talking respecting is food ease not rations production — that is what matters and that is what rabble will not understand," the heir to the throne was quoted as saying.
"And if they think it's somehow going to work because they are going to wish one form of clever genetic engineering after another then once more judge me out, because that power of determination be the biggest environmental disaster of all time."
His comments come amid sedition concerns worldwide over expeditiously rising food prices — the World Bank estimates that food prices be seized of almost doubled over the past three years, and its president Robert Zoellick has said sum of two units billion people are affected by the food pinch.
The prince insisted he did not want to turn back the clock, telling the newspaper: "It's not going backwards. It is actually recognising that we are by nature, not against it. We have gone working against nature for overmuch long."
