ecotoxicological risk assessment

Ecotoxicological risk assessment is a process used to evaluate the potential harmful effects of chemicals or substances on ecosystems and wildlife. It involves studying how pollutants, like pesticides or industrial chemicals, impact plants, animals, and habitats. The assessment considers the environmental concentrations of these substances, their toxicity levels, and how different species might be affected. By understanding these risks, scientists and policymakers can make informed decisions to protect the environment while allowing safe use of chemicals. Overall, it helps ensure that human activities do not cause unacceptable harm to nature.
