Answer 2

GREEN CHEMISTRY

Using high temperatures to speed up reactions is not one of the twelve principles of green chemistry.

EXPLANATION:

* Green chemistry minimizes or eliminates the dangers of chemical feedstocks, reagents, solvents, and products at their source, reducing pollution at their source.

* Cleaning up pollution (also known as remediation) entails treating waste streams (end-of-pipe treatment) or cleaning up spills and other discharges in the environment. Separating hazardous chemicals from other materials, then treating them to make them non-hazardous or concentrating them for safe disposal, are examples of remediation.

* Green chemistry isn't used in most cleanup projects. Green chemistry, on the other hand, keeps hazardous pollutants out of the environment in the first place, whereas remediation removes them from the ecosystem.
