Abstract
The environment determines the existence of man who nowadays is consideredto be the main and sometimes the sole protagonist of transformations. Man connectsits existence with nature, he depends upon it and at the same time he conditionsits existence from its good or ill will. He possesses the tools and knowledge aboutthe possibilities of nature’s transformation and even annihilation of it which makeshim occupy a unique position in the universe. Therefore, efforts to protect theenvironment of life must be multidirectional and coordinated. It is possible thatin future modern biotechnology will be the solution for sustainable development,which provides the possibility to exercise control over economy and directs scientificresearch. Making any decision in this area involves the responsibility of internationalinstitutions, government, and citizens. Hence, it is important to create a situation inwhich the development and use of modern technologies, knowledge and skills, are inconditions which ensure maximum safety and exclude needless risk to humans andthe environment of their lives.
