Chemical (mutagens)
usually either mimic the structure of nucleotides and are inserted in DNA or either cause
chemical changes (such as alkylation) in nucleotides hence causing mismatching during replication.
Radiation, on the other hand, (due to its high energy) causes double-strand breaks in DNA causing an
increased likelihood of mutations during the repair of the DNA by cell
mechanisms.
Well one thing u could do is to reduce the amount of fossil fuels burning (idk how, maybe finding a better alternative to burning them) another way would be planting more trees, or buy energy efficient products. Basically these things just reduce the carbon footprint by reducing the amount of fossil fuels (because we only have a limited amount) i hope this helped
