Editor's Notes
- Formulated by Paul Anastes
- Designing chemicals to break down
- Its important to note that these are what we see our scope as including (we haven’t achieved all of these pieces yet). Under Assistance to Researchers emphasize that it is critical that we assist researchers with efforts that they are leading towards Green Chemistry and that they see us as benefiting their ongoing research (such as by providing free chemicals) and not just addressing “sustainability” needs. Under Curriculum you can mention honors classes, educating students about the changes made in labs and K-12 education. You’ll talk in more detail later so this can be a pretty quick overview.
- Zero waste by 2012?
- Biomimicry – Companies such as Biomatrica and GenVault have developed a synthetic substance modeled after natural compounds that Water bears and Sea Monkeys use to protect themselves through desiccation.
- Build support and trust with researchers; address a current frustration and common problem; common sense and unintrusive to research experiments; buy in from EHS --- Add slides:
- Mercury (Problem – cost, breaks and safety, pervasive; Solution – sprit therm, small grant, labrats outreach; Effectiveness of the Pilot,- number of thermometers gone or replaced, barometers)
- Chem Surplus Program (Problem, Solution – basic overview, Screen Shots, effectiveness – number of chem exchanged, storage not a problem; number of labs engaged; attention to program – thesis Miriam Weil)
- Should I mention super critical CO2 here?
- Bring in the experts = lecture series
- Great you can be the innovator on that Curriculum refer to UC Berkeley Inventory and cataloging, Get card We look to purity of research, other researchers are doing this… This is now common procedure… Look into junior faculty Get senior faculty through lecture series Contamination; we trust researchers to make those decisions, but do our best to gauge contamination risk, solvents, acids and bases we don’t recommend use for issues Storage;
