How Can Toxicology Help Address the Challenges of Deforestation?
Toxicologists can play a critical role in addressing the challenges posed by deforestation by conducting research to understand the pathways and impacts of toxins in deforested areas. They can develop methods to monitor and mitigate the spread of pollutants and work on strategies to rehabilitate and restore degraded ecosystems. Public awareness programs can also benefit from toxicological insights, educating communities about the health risks associated with deforestation and promoting sustainable land-use practices.
