What does the GreenScreen hazard assessment method categorize?

  1. Types of renewable energy sources

  2. Health hazards of individual chemicals

  3. Carbon emissions of products

  4. Efficiency of water use in landscaping

The correct answer is: Health hazards of individual chemicals

The GreenScreen hazard assessment method is designed specifically to evaluate and categorize the health hazards posed by individual chemicals. This assessment focuses on identifying and understanding the potential risks associated with specific substances, helping designers and manufacturers make informed decisions about material selection in order to promote safety and environmental responsibility. This method provides a systematic approach to analyzing chemicals based on their toxicity and the potential impact they may have on human health and the environment. By prioritizing the understanding of health hazards, the GreenScreen method supports the overall goal of sustainable and safe materials in various applications. The other options do not align with the scope of the GreenScreen method. It does not focus on renewable energy sources, carbon emissions, or water efficiency in landscaping—these areas pertain to different aspects of sustainability rather than the specific evaluation of chemical hazards.
