How Do Biofuels Affect Environmental and Human Health?
Biofuels are derived from biological materials and are considered an alternative to fossil fuels. While they are renewable, their production and use can lead to toxicological issues. For example, the use of pesticides and fertilizers in biofuel crop production can contaminate water supplies. Additionally, the combustion of biofuels can release harmful pollutants. Toxicologists study these effects to develop guidelines for safer biofuel production and use.
