Abstract

Sako Aboubakar

Chemical contaminants are pervasive in our environment, arising from a wide range of sources such as industrial activities, agricultural practices and household products. While these substances have undoubtedly improved our quality of life, they also pose significant risks to ecosystem health. Understanding the ecological consequences of chemical contaminants is crucial for developing effective strategies to mitigate their impacts and ensure the long-term sustainability of our ecosystems. Chemical contaminants have profound ecological consequences, impacting the health and functioning of ecosystems in numerous ways. These consequences can be observed at various levels, from individual organisms to entire ecological communities.
