Biotechnology and biodiversity for the sustainable development of our society

Abstract

Biotechnology has the potential to play a significant role in the sustainable development of our society. This technology involves using living organisms or their products to develop or modify products or processes for specific use. It is a broad term that encompasses a range of technologies, including genetic engineering, tissue culture, and fermentation. While it has many potential benefits, it must be compatible with biodiversity. Biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth, including the different plants, animals, and microorganisms that make up our ecosystems. It is essential for the health and functioning of these ecosystems and the sustainable development of our society1, 2.
