dc.description | Many chemicals have the potential to cause significant harm to the environment if not managed properly. They can contaminate soil, water bodies, and air, leading to adverse effects on ecosystems, wildlife, and plant life. Chemicals can also pose serious risks to human health, especially if they are toxic, carcinogenic, or mutagenic. Exposure to hazardous chemicals can occur through various routes such as inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. | en_US |
