Joel Tickner, Center for Sustainable Production, "the petrochemical industry is standing in the way of real climate solutions. It brought us the Cancer Alleys. Time for government to stop subsidizing this industry with billions of dollars. @DSCEJ@DrBobBullard#HBCUCC2022
.@The_GC3, which worked to get a #sustainable chemistry provision tucked into the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021, is thinking about ways it could help promote more sustainable approaches to #plastics#recycling.
Both Jürgen Tiedje @EU_Commission and @jtickner say “there is no #SafeandSustainableByDesign without the chemical industry.” @jtickner highlights there are increasing markets and regulatory demands. Shared costs to answer to these demands.
Prof @jtickner from @UMassLowell says we need not only remove dangerous chemicals but also focus on #innovation and growing supply of new chemicals and materials. We need to reward the front runners that tip the scale towards #SafeandSustainableByDesign chemicals.
Through support from the @LemelsonFdn, we're teaming up with @NOBCChE and @Society4Science for a Speaker Series to elevate the stories of inventors (including student inventors) from diverse backgrounds. Register today to join these bimonthly panels: ow.ly/DI0350GeUzv
