Serious flaws in a Conference on Moral Imperative of Biotechnology
"The surest path toward elimination of hunger and malnutrition is to eliminate poverty and the unjust social structures that underlie it.
  These are the root causes of hunger, not lack of sufficient food production. It is neither equitable nor sustainable to talk of increasing food production without addressing food distribution."September 2004
