1. Organic and inorganic pollutants
Environmental protection has become a major concern. The uncontrolled effects of multiple human activities are now affecting biological dynamics and biogeochemical balances. Strong indicators such as climate change, erosion of biodiversity, and pollution of soil, waterways and groundwater all point to the need for new strategies to protect the biosphere. Domestic, industrial and agricultural waste are major contributors to pollution and environmental damage.
Every one of us is confronted with examples that demonstrate the need to develop strategies to protect the biosphere. For example, biocides (insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, algicides, acaricides or herbicides) are chemical compounds with toxicological properties, designed to combat the spread of pests (insects or rodents), algae, invasive plants (weeds) or phytopathogenic fungi. Their intensive use poses...
