The field of green chemistry has tremendous potential to have a positive impact on our environment and our lives, provided we can get the ideas out of the lab and used in commercial applications. Making that transition involves building a business case and an emphasis on the “D” in “R&D”—not traditionally areas of expertise for university researchers.
