How Can We Identify Environmentally Friendly Substances?
To identify environmentally friendly substances, toxicologists often rely on various criteria: - Biodegradability: How quickly a substance breaks down in the environment. - Toxicity Levels: The degree to which a substance can harm organisms. - Bioaccumulation: The extent to which a substance can build up in living organisms over time. - Persistence: How long a substance remains in the environment before breaking down.
