The ethos Foundation has published a 120 page study (In French or German) with
the aim of defining the position of an investor driven by the concept of
sustainable development, on the subject of genetically modified organisms (GMO)
in crops.
The study is divided into two parts : a basic text covering the
scope of the study, the issues at stake and ethos’ position on GMOs, and an
annexe dealing with the more technical aspects of GMOs, their uses as well as
the institutional framework which governs them.
ethos, as a long term
investor, refers to the principle of precaution in its position on the issue of
GMOs in the agro-chemical and food-processing industries. It distinguishes
between these two sectors taking account of their specificities in terms of
impact, roles and responsibilities in the promotion of GMOs.
