green-chemistry
Green chemistry is an approach to chemical design and engineering that prioritizes minimizing or eliminating hazardous substances throughout the lifecycle of products and processes. In plant science, it drives the development of safer extraction methods for bioactive compounds, eco-friendly agricultural inputs, and sustainable production of plant-derived materials. This framework is increasingly important as researchers seek to harness plants' chemical diversity while reducing environmental harm from laboratory and industrial processes.
