SUMMARY:Safer Made Webinar: Investing in Safer Chemistry and Consumer Products
DESCRIPTION:Register Today! \nThis webinar will feature Dr. Marty Mulvihill\, General Partner at Safer Made. \nDescription: At Safer Made we support companies that create chemicals and materials that make our consumer products healthier for people and the natural world. This means creating alternatives to harmful chemicals and thinking about product design\, from manufacturing through the end of a product’s useful life. In today’s marketplace\, consumers are demanding safer and more sustainable products and this translates into a multi-billion opportunity for safer chemistry and product innovation. The webinar will highlight current innovation trends in safer chemistry that are reshaping the way that packaging\, textile and apparel\, building materials\, and formulated products are made. At Safer Made we believe that everyone plays a role in shaping the future of chemistry and this talk will share ways that you can get involved in supporting the creation of safer and more sustainable products. \n

SUMMARY:Chemical Education Seminar\, Purdue University
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Benign’s Executive Director\, Dr. Amy Cannon\, will give a seminar at the Chemical Education department at Purdue University. \nTitle: Green Chemistry Education: Preparing next generation chemists to practice sustainability through chemistry \nAbstract: \nToday’s global sustainability challenges will involve innovative chemical solutions. Green chemistry by definition is the intentional design of safer\, less hazardous products and processes that reduce or eliminate hazardous substances. The implementation of green chemistry throughout educational systems is essential to support a growing global greener chemicals market. Through innovation in the laboratory and with changes in chemical education\, chemistry students can be prepared to solve 21st century problems. \nThis presentation will discuss techniques and resources for adopting green chemistry throughout our educational systems and highlight higher education programs that are aimed at transforming chemistry education\, including Beyond Benign’s Green Chemistry Commitment\, a voluntary\, flexible framework for chemistry departments to adopt green chemistry theory and practice. The Commitment aims to transform chemistry education in higher education to equip students with the skills and knowledge to design safer\, more sustainable products and processes. Additional resources will be presented\, including a newly available Green Chemistry Resource Guide for the Organic Chemistry Lab Course.

SUMMARY:Green Chemistry Student Chapters: Stories of Success at ACS NOLA 2018
DESCRIPTION:Join Beyond Benign and the ACS Green Chemistry Institute to celebrate model green chemistry student chapters at the ACS National Meeting in New Orleans\, LA. \nThe Green Chemistry Award has quickly become one of the most sought after accolades for student chapters. To be eligible for green chemistry status\, chapters must engage in at least three green chemistry activities per year\, ranging from community outreach activities to hosting invited speakers. This symposium will provide a platform for student chapters who have been awarded green chemistry status to share their unique strategies and stories. Through peer to peer student conversations\, more student chapters may be inspired and empowered to achieve green chemistry status.
