In toxicology, the focus is on understanding the harmful impacts of chemicals on living organisms and ecosystems. Green chemistry contributes by: - Reducing Exposure: By designing safer chemicals and processes, green chemistry reduces the likelihood of exposure to toxic substances. - Minimizing Waste: Green chemistry principles help in reducing chemical waste, which can be toxic to both humans and the environment. - Enhancing Safety: Safer chemicals and processes reduce the risk of accidents and long-term health issues associated with toxic exposures.
