In satysfying its needs Mankind uses the Earth's physical resources and fossil energy and produces products that often are recalcitrant to biodegradation.Therefore the production strategies employed in agriculture and industry need reconsideration. Biotechnology paves the way for optimising production processes.Molecular breeding strategies can contribute to agriculture.Biotechnology can contribute to developments in the field of renewable energy.Environmental biotechnology can be of value in environmental management.Biotechnology thus can contribute to both bio-remediation and making technology in our society more sustainable, it therefore deserves a place in (higher) education programme in the environmental sciences field.
