Analytical review of environmental toxicity testing: An analysis in the light of sustainability
Kamal Kant
Abstract
Environmental toxicity assessment serves as an indispensable tool to evaluate the potential hazards of chemicals and products to ecosystems and human well-being. Nevertheless, current approaches of testing may fall short in properly assessing the possible dangers of chemicals and their consequences on sustainability. Hence, the objective of this analytical overview is to scrutinize the efficiency of environmental toxicity testing in terms of sustainability principles.
The overview analyzes the fundamental tenets of sustainability, which include the principle of caution, the principle of polluter accountability, and the principle of intergenerational equity. Additionally, it scrutinizes the existing environmental toxicity testing methodologies and pinpoints their restrictions in addressing sustainability apprehensions. The overview accentuates the significance of integrating sustainability principles into toxicity testing frameworks to guarantee that the testing methodologies are effective in encouraging sustainable development.
