GM crops cut greenhouse gases says new study
A study by Graham Brookes and Peter Barfoot for PG Economics commissioned by Monsanto finds GM crops reduce carbon dioxide emissions through less tillage and lower fossil fuel use. In 2005 no till farming with GM crops saved soil carbon and fuel, cutting emissions with widespread adoption by 8.5 million farmers on 215 million acres.
