Title: CHEMRAWN XIV - Green Chemistry
Coordinator(s): R.
Pariser
Remarks: Collaborative venture with UNESCO
Completion Date: 2001 - project completed
Objective:
Possibility and/or desirability of holding a review of theories, predictions
and work done since CHEMRAWN
VII being investigated with organizers of original CHEMRAWN VII.
Progress:
The World Conference on Green
Chemistry -"Toward Environmentally Benign Processes and Products"
is being organized in Boulder, Colorado, USA, 9-13 June 2001.
Hundreds of scientists and policy makers from around the world will
gather to discuss challenges to the quality of our environment in the
new millenium. Through discussion among leaders in industry, government,
academia and environmental organizations, this meeting will explore
many sustainability issues which may be addressed and improved by chemical
research and policy development.
