| In contrast to these stark realities (which are just as much about agricultural practices, societal and governmental practices, public health practices, and human approaches to climate change), much has admittedly improved in the way we ensure food and beverage security and safety, at least compared to times prior to the twentieth century. In fact, the laboratory and the science practiced in it have arguably played a significant role in better ensuring safe, quality food and beverages in our lives. However, the laboratory is only one part of an otherwise "complex adaptive system of governance"<ref>{{Cite book |last=Lytton |first=Timothy D. |date=2019 |chapter=An Introduction to the Food Safety System |title=Outbreak: Foodborne Illness and the Struggle for Food Safety |publisher=The University of Chicago Press |place=Chicago ; London |pages=1-23 |isbn=978-0-226-61154-9}}</ref> that is food safety, which in turn is only one part of a larger system dedicated to food and water security.
