They have also been used widely as growth promoters to increase meat production, although this practice was banned in the European Union in 2006. While the misuse of antibiotics in medical and agricultural practices has been linked to increasing resistance, the role of the natural environment in the emergence and spread of resistance has received relatively little attention.Full report is available at: https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/22255 NO https://www.unep.org/resources/frontiers-2017-emerging-issues-environmental-concern DS UN Environment Document Repository RD Sep 24, 2026
