Connections to economic systems

Hello, everyone! As you guys know MsKwan recently has instructed to read a book,so we've been reading the science novel named "Oryx and Crake" which talks about the only man -- Jimmy  survives after the terrible doom caused by the calamity of one unstoppable pestilence around the whole world. The reason is the overdeveloped biotechnology. Biotechnology is the most crucial element in this book, and most readers are interested in what exactly it is. "What effects would this technology bring to world economic issue?" is one of hot questions people want to ask. Well, fortunately, this is what am I going to talk about today.

  First of all, lets define what biotechnology is. Biotechnology, the use of living cells and bacteria in industrial and scientific processes. Military, agriculture, medicine and environment are all the fields biotechnology able to be involved. This mysterious technology has the ability to intensify our lives markedly while it brings the society great deal of improvement of finances.

  In military, various useful weapons would be invented based on bio-tech, then produce and sell. I'm sure other countries that have lower tech. would offer an acceptable price.

  In agriculture, biotechnology can increase the efficiency of producing and make up more kind of fruits and vegetables, which couldn't be good ways to make much more benefits?

  Especially in medical realm, bio-tech would bring unprecedented improvement of finances. Lets make a easy example: as you know, clone is one of technology under bio-tech, and we're also able to clone organs! That means once people get serious disease on one of organs or lose one part of their body such as arm or lag, doctor can clone a new one totally same as the old one in order to replace the broken one by bio-tech. I think no matter how overstate the price is people are still willing to pay for it, which we can know how horrible the benefits the hospital will get.

  In conclusion, undoubtedly, biotechnology will bring us countless economic benefits, which can make our lives better. But, however, things will develop in the opposite direction when they become extreme. Flaws of this tech are obvious as well as its advantage. Bio-tech may lead human to destruction if we use this great power in inappropriate way.
