Precautionary Principle - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precautionary_principle

Fields typically concerned by the precautionary principle are the possibility of:

Global warming or abrupt climate change in general
Extinction of species
Introduction of new and potentially harmful products into the environment, threatening biodiversity (e.g., genetically modified organisms)
Threats to public health, due to new diseases and techniques (e.g., AIDS transmitted through blood transfusion)
Long-term effects of new technologies (e.g. health concerns regarding radiation from cell phones and other electronics communications devices)
Persistent or acute pollution (asbestos, endocrine disruptors...)
Food safety (e.g., Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease)
Other new biosafety issues (e.g., artificial life, new molecules)
