Parts Per Billion

What Is a GMO Anyway?

Congress passed a GMO disclosure law earlier this summer, but food companies are still a little confused about out how to comply. One of the reasons for the confusion: not everyone agrees on what a GMO is or whether we should even call them GMOs. For this episode of Parts Per Billion, we speak with environmental attorney Keith Matthews about what the new law will mean for the food industry, for federal agencies and for shoppers in the grocery aisle.
