Many state the importance of having a holistic perspective on antibiotic resistance and that the environment has an important role in how resistant bacteria develop. But why then? Does it matter if bacteria in the environment carry antibiotic resistance? Johan Bengtsson-Palme offers a journey past emissions from drug production, Swedish treatment plants and ordinary forest lakes to understand how the environment affects the healthcare of the future.
