The EU regulatory bodies are not filled with crystal-waving hippies. Maybe you should look into why GMOs are banned/heavily restricted there (environmental/ecological risks).
"But science" is a good corporate propaganda strategy when the science does clearly say one thing, but not this other thing which is also important. Don't be misled. Look at the entire issue.
"In sharp contrast to public views about GMOs, 89% of scientists believe genetically modified foods are safe.
That’s the most eye-opening finding in a Pew Research Center study on science literacy, undertaken in cooperation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), and released on January 29.
The overwhelming scientific consensus exceeds the percentage of scientists, 88%, who think humans are mostly responsible for climate change. However, the public appears far more suspicious of scientific claims about GMO safety than they do about the consensus on global warming."
The EU regulatory bodies are governed by elected politicians who in this case listen to fearmongering, not science.
