Designing for a Green Chemistry Future
A new paper in a special edition of Science (“Chemistry for Tomorrow's Earth”) makes the case for green chemistry as the underpinning for a sustainable future: a future where the materials and chemicals that make up the basis of our society and our economy are healthful rather than toxic, renewable rather than depleting, and degradable rather than persistent. In the paper titled “Design for a chemistry future”, Paul Anastas, Julie Zimmerman and Hanno Erythropel from the Yale
