Jackson de Verteuil; Philip G. Jessop; Amanda Bongers – Journal of Chemical Education, 2024
The most important learning objective in green chemistry education is the ability to identify the synthesis, process, or chemical that is least environmentally harmful. Existing metrics fall short for different reasons. Mass-based metrics fail to assess environmental harm, while life cycle assessment (LCA) is much too complex to insert into the…
