Paul Anastas: "Green Chemistry: The Future"

2018 Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series presenter Professor Paul T. Anastas is widely known as the “Father of Green Chemistry”
In this lecture, Anastas' discusses a civilization-wide scale transformation needed to achieve a sustainable society. This transformation will affect all aspects of life including the way that we raise food, generate energy, utilize water, design products, and communicate. These changes will only be possible if the way that we think changes. Thoughts on what the future may look like and the role that green chemistry may play is worth contemplating.
Professor Paul T. Anastas is on the faculty of Yale University with appointments in the Department of Chemistry, the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, The School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, and the School of Management. He has published 13 books on sustainable technology.
