Bioeconomy for Ensuring Sustainable Development of Socio-economic systems

Abstract

Environmental pollution is one of the most pressing global issues of our time, seriously affecting human health, ecosystems, and the planet's climate. The problem of pollution covers various aspects, including air, water, and soil pollution, which has catastrophic consequences for natural resources, quality of life, and the future functioning of socio-economic systems. Every year, pollution causes chronic and new diseases in humans and threatens biodiversity and the health of ecosystems. At the same time, water and soil pollution affects agriculture, causing the degradation of fertile land and the contamination of food and feed, which threatens food security.
