The Personal Genome Project (PGP) is not primarily focused on environmental science or green technology. Its core mission revolves around open-access genomic data and research. While some genomic research could indirectly relate to environmental factors (e.g., studying genetic predispositions to certain diseases impacted by environmental toxins), this is not the primary focus of the PGP's stated goals.

The PGP, based in the USA, aims to create a publicly available database of human genomes, along with extensive phenotypic information about the individuals whose genomes are sequenced. The project's objective is to accelerate genomic research by providing researchers with a large, open-access dataset. This data allows for studies on a wide range of topics, including disease genetics, human evolution, and the relationship between genetics and various traits.
