  Toxicological Assessment of Biofuels: Environmental Implications and Health Risks
  Author(s): John Boon*
  
  The increasing global demand for renewable energy has spurred significant interest in biofuels as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. Biofuels, derived from organic materials such as plant biomass, agricultural residues, and waste products, are often touted for their potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on non-renewable energy sources. However, the rapid expansion of biofuel production and use raises important questions regarding their environmental implications and potential health risks. While biofuels are often promoted as a cleaner energy option, the processes involved in their cultivation, production, and utilization can lead to environmental challenges, including land use changes, water consumption, and contamination. ..
