In your original sentence, the phrase "due to" was used to introduce the reason or cause for the belief stated.
However, "due to" is typically used to modify nouns directly and is often used in a more passive construction of a sentence.
It works best when it can directly follow a noun or at the start of a sentence where the context makes it clear what the noun is. For example, it could work well in a sentence like "The cancellation was due to rain."
In your sentence, switching to "considering" provides a smoother transition into the reasons supporting the belief.
"Considering" is used to introduce consideration of various factors or evidence that supports a conclusion or opinion, making it a more active and engaging way to lead into the explanation of benefits provided by genetic engineering.
Here are 10 examples of how to correctly use "due to":
1.The delay in the flight was due to foggy weather.
2.Due to her vast experience in the industry, she was offered the managerial position.
3.The success of the project was due to the team's hard work and dedication.
4.Due to increased demand, the company decided to ramp up production.
5.The game was postponed due to heavy snow.
6.Due to technical difficulties, the presentation has been rescheduled.
7.Traffic congestion was worse due to construction on the main road.
8.The park was closed due to the risk of falling trees during the storm.
9.Due to unforeseen circumstances, the meeting was canceled at the last minute.
10.The budget shortfall was due to lower-than-expected sales figures.
Each of these sentences uses "due to" to directly modify a noun or noun phrase, clearly linking the cause and effect or reason for the situation described.
