How do bacteria and fungi help the environment?

Fungi break down organic matter to a level at which the worms can take over, and not all bacteria are detrimental to health!

Going even further, our capabilities in genetic manipulation have now made bacteria even more useful in many areas of process production and waste minimization or mitigation that were not possible years ago.

Bacteria and fungi contribute to nutrient cycling, decompose organic matter, and support plant growth, enhancing soil fertility. They also participate in waste degradation, water purification, and symbiotic relationships with plants.

Bacteria and fungi help the environment by decomposing organic matter, recycling nutrients, improving soil structure, and supporting plant growth through symbiotic relationships. They also play crucial roles in processes such as nitrogen fixation, carbon cycling, and detoxification of pollutants.
