NPOV?

[edit]

"Biotechnology: A variety of techniques that involve the use and manipulation of living organisms to make commercial products. These techniques include cell culture, tissue culture, embryo transfer, and recombinant DNA technology (genetic engineering). ETC group focuses on the social and economic impacts of new biotechnologies. ETC group is not fundamentally opposed to genetic engineering, but we have profound concerns about the way it is being foisted upon the world. In the current social, economic and political context, genetic engineering is not safe, and involves unacceptable levels of risk to people and the environment. For ETC group, the fundamental issue is control."

"We"? Is this article copy-pasted from ETC, or written by ETC? Either way, it seems extensive review/rewriting is needed. At the least, could someone please put an appropriate banner on this article? (Something about NPOV?) I'm not familiar enough with Wikipedia to know which banner would be appropriate. -Mysterius 07:34, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Four of the five references cited as "fact" are ETC publications and the fifth is a paid article that quotes ETC as a source. There is no independent verification of any of the statements here. 96.35.172.222 (talk) 21:35, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"to now think those same people will correct the climate crisis and the biosphere is little bit naïve." wheres your source? is this your point of view or hers? (sort it out) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.190.102.6 (talk) 20:35, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
