Nanotechnology is the science of engineering microscopic particles to perform tasks on a cellular level. Some nanoscientists are developing microscopic machines to perform tasks in a world so small that the unassisted human eye is unable to watch. Various nano-fields have emerged: nanomedicine, nanoengineering, nanoagriculture, and many more. Scientists are making astounding discoveries on the nano scale level.
Just a generation ago no one seemed concerned about any danger with common household products and the environment.
