What do you think?

  1. Explain how genetically modified foods contribute to a decline in biodiversity.
     

  2. What actions can you take to help prevent a decline in biodiversity due to genetically modified foods?
     

  3. Suppose purple loosestrife and zebra mussels were not controlled and they continued to crowd out other species. So what? How could this affect you?
     

  4. Think of three policy changes that, if enacted, would help control growth of the Dead Zone.
     

  5. You are a County Extension Officer who provides advice to farmers. Create a handout, about one of the issues on this website, that offers suggestions on how to control declining biodiversity.
