TAILIEUCHUNG - EXPLORING OPPORTUNITIES IN GREEN CHEMISTRY AND ENGINEERING EDUCATION

Awareness of issues related to the environment—the need to conserve, the need for pollution minimization, the need to design for the future—have become part of the social dialog. It is seen in advertising: “green” in car commercials. It is seen at the grocery store: “paper or plastic?” It is seen in our personal energy use: “Do you choose the company that gets part of its electricity from renewable sources or standard resources?” It is part of the voting platforms—balancing the needs of having national parks with exploration and utilization of resources | EXPLORING OPPORTUNITIES IN GREEN CHEMISTRY AND ENGINEERING EDUCATION A Workshop Summary to the Chemical Sciences Roundtable Paul Anastas Frankie Wood-Black Tina Masciangioli Ericka McGowan and Laura Ruth Editors Chemical Sciences Roundtable Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology Division on Earth and Life Studies NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS Washington .
