Perhaps I am not being clear or your not seeing the forest for the trees.
I guess, or maybe I just don't see ecology as a matter of natural environments that somehow, magically, can respond to any condition or change in conditions - except for the ones humans create. Can humans wreak incredible damage to their environments? Yes, of course - but so can insects. Humans can dam streams, but beavers do, too.
It's fairly rare for an ecology to turn on the survival or extinction of a single species, or even a handful of species. When an ecology is structured like that it's evidence of decay, of fragility. It's like a diseased antelope, soon to be culled by the hyenas.
So I guess what I'm saying is - I don't care if Bt washes into streams. Bt has always washed into streams. Is it worth monitoring? Of course it is, and I hope that research continues. I strongly suspect it will be, funded largely by the companies who produce GMO's. But
anything we do in the world is going to have an effect. And there will be effects - changes that occur to natural ecology - in the world long after the last human is gone. Maybe our actions will change our ecologies in ways we don't like, and we should be on the lookout for that. But
just changing things isn't inherently bad.
We're probably a bit off-topic, here.
