From domination to partnership
Abstract
Despite advances in synthetic biology and ecological understanding, the deployment of engineered microorganisms for bioremediation remains stalled due to outdated containment-centric narratives and regulatory frameworks. A shift from a logic of control to one of care and stewardship, is needed for a more responsible, culturally adjusted and scientifically grounded path toward leveraging biotechnology for planetary repair.
