A Power That Comes with Great Risks

Surreal flowers and DNA with virus receptors.

DNA is the code of life, and as we learn to decode, recode, and restructure it, we will gain unprecedented control over the physical world.

This power could enable us to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems, such as climate change and food insecurity. However, it is important to note that this power also comes with great risks.

For example, we could accidentally release a virus that devastates humanity or create runaway novel species that disrupt our fragile ecosystems.
