Does it make sense for every field to have at least some backround knowledge in science?

Wilson mentions, "[The World requires more people] in education, medicine, law, diplomacy, government, business, and the media that exist today [with a basic backround in science]"

Is this necessary, that almost every field from politics to the media be filled with scientifically literate people?
