Lothian and Borders Bio-check
Welcome to our website, updated as necessary to track significant developments. Our aim is to inform and campaign within
Lothian and Borders on the irresponsible use of genetic engineering,
particularly on the risks of genetically modified (GM) foods
and crops. There is at present no consensus among scientists on the safety of these. LABB is based in the Edinburgh area but has close contact with similar groups in Scotland and throughout the UK.
