Cloning

Continuing the discussion we had on class 1/30 on cloning. I believe that cloning hold the key to developing a plethora of medical advances, from finding cures to cancer, and to solving food issues. With cloning stem cells can be replicated, thus fewer fetuses must be used to obtain these cells. This would then result in more support, both morally and financially. With this funding and a higher interest from the general public, medical advances are bound to occur. Then cloning can be used to create genetically engineered food, which then can be used to increase crop yields, even with the changes in environment which are occurring. If a plant is developed which can endure the blistering heat and lack of water in Africa, then a major problem can be mollified. The possibilities are nearly endless with cloning, but with this great power, comes great responsibility, and this power must be controlled to avoid chaos.
