Estonians changed their mind about GMOs

Estonians have changed their mind on GM food and agriculture between 2001 and 2005 a survey of the Estonian Institute on Economics reveals. In 2001 53% said they might eat GM food and only 24% said certainly not, in 2005 only 24% said "maybe" but 46% "certainly not". Also a majority now believes that GMOs should not be grown in their country.</p><p><a href="http://www.saveourseeds.org/downloads/estonian_GM_poll_2001_2005.pdf">excerpts of the poll in English</a></p><p><a href="http://www.ki.ee/uudised/OSTUEELISTUSED_2005_-_MAHETOIT_presentatsioon.pdf">Original in Estonian</a>
