Genetically Modified (GMO) Food Video: is there a danger ? is there a link with famine in third world countries ?

"The problem was how to keep the wheels of industry turning without increasing the real wealth of the world. Goods must be produced, but they must not be distributed."

-- George Orwell in 1984, about Warfare

Genetically Modified (GM) foods are produced from genetically modified organisms (GMO) which have had their genome altered through genetic engineering techniques. The general principle of producing a GMO is to insert DNA that has been taken from another organism and modified in the laboratory into an organism's genome to produce both new and useful traits or phenotypes. Typically this is done using DNA from certain types of bacteria.

The video on the right side is presented by a physicist. It tackles GM Foods as well as the Famine Problem in the World.
