Join Oregon Environmental Council and Zero Waste Alliance to learn about green chemistry and how it can help Oregon businesses create and produce cleaner, safer chemicals, materials and products.
Oregon companies are already using green chemistry to make greener footwear, plywood and cleaning products—and there are even more opportunities for businesses in the state to boost their environmental performance, competitiveness, and profitability. Green chemistry can help expand Oregon's knowledge-based economy and strengthen our nationally-recognized leadership in sustainable industries.
Take advantage of this opportunity to learn about the benefits of green chemistry from leading experts including:
- Paul Anastas, Assistant Administrator, Office of Research and Development, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
- John Frazier, Director of Considered Chemistry, Nike, Inc.
- Jim Hutchison, Professor, Department of Chemistry, University of Oregon
