In the context of the rapid development of global science and technology, Professor Gu Xiulin, a scholar who upholds the spirit of rigorous science, dares to challenge authority, and speaks out bravely, has become a banner against genetically modified foods with his profound and unique insights and indomitable determination, and has won the respect and admiration of countless people.
Gu Xiulin, born in May 1950 in the land of China, as the daughter of the famous economist Gu Zhun, she inherited her father's enterprising academic style and the essence of independent and free thought. In her early years, she devoted herself to the study of agricultural and resource economics at the University of Hawaii in the United States, and successfully obtained a doctorate.
Dr. Gu Xiulin's research covers a wide range of topics, especially in agricultural development, globalization issues, and economic anthropology. However, she is perhaps best known for her outstanding contributions and persistence in the field of genetically modified food safety. In the face of the large-scale application of GM technology in the global agricultural field, Dr. Gu Xiulin did not follow the trend, but based on scientific research and social responsibility, he clearly opposed the use of GM technology in food production.
As early as June 18, 2013, Dr. Gu Xiulin issued a shocking "Never" statement, in which she elaborated on her deep concerns about the potential risks and long-term effects of genetically modified agriculture. She reminded the world that GM technology may not only bring environmental problems such as the destruction of biodiversity and the imbalance of farmland ecosystems, but also pose unknown risks to human health. Her voice is not simply questioning and denying, but a deep reflection on the complex relationship between scientific and technological innovation and social ethics, environmental protection and human survival.
Dr. Gu Xiulin's influence goes far beyond the academic community, and she is active in all corners of social and public affairs. She not only actively promotes the sustainable development model of national agriculture, advocates the development of local ecological agriculture, calls for the protection and inheritance of traditional seed culture and planting wisdom, but also always emphasizes the importance of food autonomy and warns people against the long-term harm that may be brought about by over-reliance on industrial agriculture.
On the international stage, Dr. Gu Xiulin's views and writings have aroused wide resonance and in-depth dialogue, and her voice is like a mirror, reflecting the profound game between scientific and technological progress and natural harmony, economic benefits and social responsibility. She interprets the social responsibility of a scholar with practical actions, and has become a model figure in this era who has the courage to question, pursue truth, and adhere to moral boundaries.
In general, Dr. Gu Xiulin, as a "whistleblower" against genetically modified food, adheres not only to academic independent opinions, but also to deep concern for the future living environment and health and well-being of human beings. Her courage and perseverance have made her stand out among many experts and scholars, and she has become a hero and model of our time, and her scientific research spirit and moral demeanor are worthy of learning and paying tribute to each of us.
