environment. It is a movement that restores the environment that humans have damaged. Scientists have addressed the idea‚ in "A life of its own" by Michael Specter‚ of using synthetic biology to mend environmental issues. Synthetic biology combines the "elements of engineering‚ chemistry‚ computer science‚ and molecular biology…to assemble the biological tools necessary to redesign the living world" (Specter 364). There are both positive and negative impacts of a synthetic world on the environment movement
