This course teaches (i) how the principles of green chemistry can help resolve global human health and environmental issues, (ii) how green chemistry functions, and (iii) how it is implemented. We will explore how chemistry can help address global human health and environmental issues. It provides an introduction to the foundational principles of chemistry including atoms, molecules, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, and chemical/physical properties. This knowledge is then related to various environmental and human health issues and develops the appropriate solutions using green chemistry approaches covered in the course. The curriculum was developed as part of the Global Green Chemistry Initiative (GGCI and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO. The GGCI consists of six primary projects to raise awareness and provide instruction and information on green chemistry.
