>Not long ago, the phrase "green chemistry" might have been considered an
>oxymoron. But now, the idea of preventing pollution at its source is being
>pursued by industry as a logical and effective way to improve its
>products, save money, and eliminate the onus and costs of environmental
>contamination.
>
>Environmentally benign synthesis, also known as "green chemistry," seeks
>to incorporate environmental and toxicological awareness at the design
>phase of a synthetic process. The basic concept is that it is far better
>to develop a synthetic strategy that avoids the use of hazardous material
>in the first place than to face clean up, containment, and waste disposal
>costs.
>
>On September 10, 2004, AIChE-Boston (known informally as "The
>Ichthyologists") will present University of Massachusetts Professor John
>Warner, a world renowned green chemistry authority, who will provide us
>with an overview of this exciting new field as well as give real world
>examples of successful implementation of green chemistry in commercial
>operations.
>
>Speakers
>Dr. John Warner, is a Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Center
>for Green Chemistry at the University of Massachusetts.  Prof. Warner is
