Abstract

The article deals with Science, Technology and Society (STS) and suggests the need to broaden the strategy and spectrum of studies by including biodiversity into the framework. The context of formulating the background of the problem by placing science and technology at the centrality of the schema, it studies the implications under the guise of climate save with the advocacy of Interdisciplinarity of sciences to begin with and to achieve the understanding of the nature of relationship between science-technology on the one hand, and, society and nature on the other. It offers a partial review of the integrated science of the sciences coming out of the labyrinth of science and technology with a proposal of scientific moratorium for the time being for Western science as a vocation, an abandoned tradition and question.
