I think that this green pig s a good theory but i dont think it is right in the animal right situations. Yes the pig will poop less phosphorus but do you really think that this pig is harming anything I mean really now were blaming pollution on pigs? But then again if it can be proved that their poop is one of the main causes of killing marine life then maybe there would be a good arugument but i dont just want some theories I want hard proof its not right to mess wit their DNA it coul harm them one day. So what if it is a pig that is environmentally friendly the pig never hurt you in the first place i just dont see the point in this. Although enviropigs poop 30 to 65 percent less phosphorus is this really worth it to farmers because it is so expensive? Read all about it.
I would agree with you on the animal point. Because of personal "beliefs" i guess, i don't think it is acceptable for us to modify any person or animals DNA. Now one can always argue, yes but there is so many pros to this. Yes i hear that but i feel that there are cheaper better ways for us to improve our environment and modifying anythings DNA is not an option. End of story. That might sound extremely arrogant and bold, but if humans are having to modify nature so that it helps our environment then we are worthless because we shouldn't have to modify nature in order to help nature. Thats just my opinion though...
