          Bion Announces New Chief Executive Officer and Director

November 22, 2010.  New York, New York.  Bion Environmental Technologies,
Inc. (OTC BB: BNET) announced today that Bill O'Neill will join Bion's
management team as its Chief Executive Officer and a member of Bion's Board
of Directors, effective January 1, 2011.

Mr. O'Neill has over 20 years experience in the agriculture and food services
industries.  Most recently, he served as the VP - Business Development for
Advance Brands, a fully-cooked protein business with approximately $225
million in annual sales. Throughout his career, O'Neill has focused on
leveraging the latest technologies to the competitive advantages of his
customers.  His advance recognition of cutting edge methodologies in both
manufacturing processes and retailer strategies has provided a primary basis
for his successful senior management career.

Mr. O'Neill stated, "Bion's technology is game changing, and will add value
to each link in the food chain.  It not only changes how food is processed,
it affects where the process can take place. American consumers (and others)
have made their wishes clear: they are looking for affordable food products
that are safer and that are produced with reduced environmental impacts.
Bion's technology and its capabilities create a clear advantage in the
ability to provide these types of products."

Mark Smith, Bion's president, stated, "We are very pleased to add Bill
O'Neill to our core management team.  As Bion transitions into a fully-
operating, commercial company, Bill's abilities and unique experience will
play a critical role in aligning Bion's capabilities with the production,
processing and distribution companies that will most benefit from them."
