SUMMARY:24th Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering Conference (GC&E)
DESCRIPTION:The 24th Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering (GC&E) Conference\, originally scheduled to take place in Seattle\, WA on June 16-18\, 2020\, is now a virtual event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This free-of-charge event is open to all. \nSimilar to an in-person event\, participants will hear and engage with colleagues about innovative science. Using a virtual platform\, they will be able to watch recorded oral presentations and engage with presenters through features like a live chat and/or audio/video Q&A. Our keynote speakers will be presenting live talks during the conference with Q&A. There will even be a full poster session. \nMany of our participants have expressed the importance of networking at GC&E\, and we are looking for creative ways to replicate this experience online. Participants will be able to communicate with each other through the platform—plus we are excited to explore virtual coffee breaks\, tweet-ups and other ways to engage. \nACS GCI will be working with our Program Chairs\, Symposium Organizers\, and Oral and Poster Presenters to transition the majority of the 45 technical sessions to the online platform. The full schedule will be announced soon! \nBROWSE TECHNICAL SESSIONS

SUMMARY:How does Green Chemistry help me do my job?
DESCRIPTION:Register now!  \nSometimes people will say “what I do has nothing to do with green chemistry” or “my job doesn’t involve green chemistry”. In the extreme\, someone who claims to “not do green chemistry” literally goes out of their way to intentionally find the most hazardous materials to work with! Let’s hope no one does this! The main issues around green chemistry are less related to creating the DESIRE for non-toxic and environmentally acceptable materials and technologies\, but more about the ABILITY to have access to them. While it is likely that chemical invention plays a key role in creating a sustainable future\, there are many other ways in which people benefit from some fundamental understanding of the principles of green chemistry. This presentation will look at the field of green chemistry from several different perspectives within NGO\, industrial\, academic\, and governmental organizations throughout the entire chemical supply chain. Questions will be solicited ahead of this webinar so that answers can be built into the presentation. Submit your questions or comments in advance of the live webinar through the registration form and join us to make some Green Chemistry Connections! \n\nFeatured Speaker:\n \nDr. John Warner\nDirector of Science and Innovation\, Beyond Benign\nDistinguished Professor of Green Chemistry\, Monash University\nCo-Founder of the field of Green Chemistry \nAnd Friends!
