When theses pollins are blown nearby, they destroy butterfly population.The professor in the lecture makes the second point by stating adverse effects on human health. GM foods cause new allergance. Due to that new allergic reaction take place in human body. These reaction may carry serious risks. A lot of laboratory work is needed to tackle this problem.
