Description

Green Chemistry practices and principals can play an important role in achieving the United Nations' (UN) special development goals. The expert contributors here have selected key goals and reviewed the implementation of green chemistry for these goals. As described by the UN, it is crucial to harmonize three core elements: economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection.
