'environmentally-adjusted' originates from the combination of 'environment' and 'adjusted', where 'environment' refers to the natural world and 'adjusted' means altered or modified.

The term 'environmentally-adjusted' evolved from the increasing awareness of environmental issues and the need for sustainable practices.

Initially, it meant 'modified to fit a specific environment', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'adapted to be more environmentally friendly'.
