Environment Microbiology is the study of microorganisms which exist in natural or artificial environments. Environmental microbiology is the ecology of microorganisms: their relationship with one another and with their environment. It relates to viruses as well as the three primary kingdoms of life: eukaryotes, archaea, and bacteria. 

Environmental microbiology is concerned with the study of microorganisms in the soil, water and air and their application in bioremediation to reduce environmental pollution through the biological degradation of pollutants into non-toxic or less toxic substances. Environmental microbiology is described as an applied field here as well. 

Environmental microbiology interacts with a variety of subspecialties, including soil, aquatic, and aeromicrobiology, as well as bioremediation, water quality, occupational health and infection control, food safety, and industrial microbiology, because environmental microbes can affect so many aspects of life and are easily transported between environments.That is how environmental microbiology may be advantageous for the future of society
