The use of safer chemicals is crucial for several reasons:
Human health: Reducing exposure to toxic substances can decrease the incidence of diseases such as cancer, respiratory issues, and reproductive problems. Environmental protection: Safer chemicals reduce pollution and the harmful impact on ecosystems, thereby protecting wildlife and natural resources. Regulatory compliance: Many countries have stringent regulations that require companies to use safer alternatives to avoid legal penalties and maintain market access. Sustainable development: Using safer chemicals supports sustainable practices and helps in achieving long-term economic and environmental goals.
