Article Review: Role of Fungi in Treating Climate and Environment of Pollution
Keywords:
Contaminants, Climate Pollution, Fungi, BioremediationAbstract
One of the most difficult issues facing humanity in the twenty-first century is climate change and the ensuing environmental degradation. Anthropogenic activities are the primary cause of climate change, which has several facets and leads to global warming and weather variations by increasing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. where using fungi's natural metabolic skills to break down and detoxify a variety of contaminants offers a viable and sustainable way to combat environmental degradation. Laccases, peroxidases, and hydrolases are just a few of the many enzymes that fungi possess that enable the breakdown of heavy metals, complex organic compounds, and xenobiotics into less toxic forms. This review sheds light on the possible uses of extremophilic fungi in initiatives to mitigate climate change.
