Four reasons why science is important

1.Understanding

2. Jobs

3. Critical  thinking:

4. Make a Better World

In developed countries, now, those conditions are rarely seen anymore.

They’re not all totally gone yet, but they’re not the curse they were decades ago. Why?

Because of

• vaccinations
• antibiotics
• nutrition
• public health measures

All of this has happened because of medical science

Now We Have

plastics

fibers

renewable biofuels

Scientists discovered how to genetically modify organisms to produce these useful products.

And engineers have designed ways to mass-produce them.

For example, engineered bacteria or yeasts produce all the human insulin used today by people with diabetes.

This is much better than the insulin we once got from pigs.

Would you like to do something with your life to help people, and to make a better world?

It would be hard to find a better way to do this than by doing science.

Or maybe you’d prefer to USE the discoveries of science by being a medical doctor or an engineer.

The world needs good scientists, engineers and doctors.

And you could be one
