Green Chem Essential

Green Chem Essential is a source for green chemistry news, stories and context. We offer updates about the work that’s happening in the field and about the inspiring people who do that work. Why should anyone care about Green Chemistry? Consider the all things we need and use on a daily basis – energy, water, food, clothing, shelter, communication, transportation, medicine. If we want to tackle climate change and create a more sustainable future, we have to find cleaner, safer, and more efficient ways to get these things. In most cases, that requires thoughtfully redesigning these things, and the processes we use to make these things, all the way down at the molecular level. Green Chemistry makes that possible. In this science lies the potential for hope, and the possibility for action.
