From ocean plastic to forest fires, our world needs invention, innovation and creativity to find solutions to our biggest problems. Green chemistry, also known as the science of solutions, offers a framework for decreasing hazards within classrooms while promoting sustainability for both human health and the environment.  Whether you are new to thinking about sustainability in the classroom, or have already implemented green chemistry lesson plans, we want you to join us. Together, we will create a community of Green Chemistry educators within the state of NY.

During our time together, NY teachers will share and collaborate in the creation of NYSSLS Aligned Green Chemistry Labs, videos of implementing labs, and lesson plans spotlighting NY Industries practicing green chemistry. We will also offer a CleanSweep program for chemistry classrooms looking for chemical disposal. Most importantly, together we will share lessons and labs as we work together to add sustainability into our sciences.  Please complete the enclosed short form to join the PLT team.
