By Herve Kempf, Le Monde, 9 February 2006 Reprinted by Organic Consumers Association English Translation from Truthout SV Note: Here's an introduction to a GMO article in the mainstream French paper Le Monde.

"Do transgenic plants have a negative effect on health? Ever since their commercialization in 1996, the question has agitated circles of experts and ecologists, without any indisputable proof allowing an affirmative response."
