Gene modification is the future. A type of gene modification has been used in the past before, like selective breeding to choose the traits you want to keep, but now with the introduction of CRISPR, we can make up those traits ourselves. It's a plausible solution, but it might give us humans too much control. I don't think gene modification is the answer, it might give us a fix for some issues, but it can very easily get into the wrong hands. I feel like it can have very major consequences if we pursue this even more, even going as far to be used on humans in a negative way. We as humans already ruined the Earth to a major degree, which just shows how much we don't know about our world. Simply changing a plant from green to red could possibly collapse an entire ecosystem, but we don't know that, and that's what's so dangerous about the idea of gene modification. Before developing ways to change the world, humans should at least try to return it as it used to be.
