Washington on Advancing Green Chemistry


John Warner, is one of the founders of the field of Green Chemistry, co-authoring the defining text "Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice" with Paul Anastas. 

John has over 200 patents, papers and books. Even more interesting is that ICIS (Chemical Industry News & Chemical Market Intelligence) has named him one of the most influential people impacting the global chemical industries. As well, in 2011 he was elected a Fellow of the American Chemical Society and named one of "25 Visionaries Changing the World" by Utne Reader. After watching this video, you can clearly see why...

Note: Senator John Kerry is present.
