What Are the Opportunities for Toxicology in a Circular Economy?
The circular economy provides numerous opportunities for toxicologists to innovate and develop safer and more sustainable materials. By collaborating with industries, toxicologists can help design products that are inherently less toxic and easier to recycle. Additionally, advances in green chemistry can pave the way for safer alternative materials. Furthermore, the development of comprehensive toxicological databases and predictive models can enhance the efficiency and accuracy of risk assessments, facilitating the safe transition to a circular economy.
