Advancements in technology offer promising solutions for mitigating the impacts of environmental toxins. Innovative approaches, such as bioremediation and advanced filtration systems, are being developed to clean up contaminated environments. Biodegradable alternatives to conventional plastics are gaining traction, reducing the burden of microplastic pollution. Additionally, the use of technology in monitoring and tracking pollution enables more effective management and response strategies. While technology cannot replace the need for prevention, it plays a crucial role in addressing existing challenges and paving the way for a healthier future.
