Green chemistry, sustainable economy and quality of life

Abstract

Despite the early problems linked to industrial activities related to chemistry date back to the early twentieth century, and issues such as green chemistry and sustainability have been already discussed in academic and industrial environments. Green chemistry is good for the environment, human health and the economy, but there are still many mysteries in the "green field". In this article, the authors attempt to repackage the "green" concept of the chemistry focused on the needs of developing new processes and broader reflections on global and sustainable economy and quality of life.
