Title : Sustainable chemistry in education
Abstract:
Sustainable Chemistry in Education includes project-based, production-based, and application-based approaches towards students to inculcate well-organized, actual, and environmental-friendlier non-toxic chemical synthesis, processes, and products. These three approaches help students to understand the prevention of pollution, elimination of risky wastes, and support human well-being, society, and the environment in a better way. This article will describe the real definition of sustainable chemistry, how is it related to green chemistry, its advantages, and disadvantages, the depletion of natural resources, its main sources, causes, and prevention methods through applied chemistry, the replacement of synthetic chemicals with natural resources, innovation tools and activities in green and sustainable chemistry, how to increase the rate of management and rate of remediation faster than the rate of waste generation and damages at the basic level, the inclusion of sustainable chemistry education at the curriculum and global levels and satisfying the requirements of current and future generations striking a balance in this challenging world. Sustainable chemistry will be one of the applied sciences in future educational studies that can address practical problems and challenges which will aid learners comprehend the impacts and benefits of sustainability with the growing ecological threats and thereby, achieving a green economy. The paper presentation will also cover the success stories and case studies of sustainable chemical sciences in terms of raw materials, technical aspects, water consumption, energy consumption, packaging and distribution, waste disposal, strategies of 3Rs, safety management through education, research, and professional resources. Sustainable Chemistry in education will seal the gaps to promote sustainability from schools to universities globally and through content and examples. Developing fundamental learning objectives, pedagogies, and assessments, disseminating best practices, integrating other basic subjects such as economics, law, etc., scaling up the education levels of teachers and lecturers, enhancing and establishing new and innovative strategies, understanding and implementing local government law and policies, will foster the best learning outcomes among the learners in all spheres.
Audience Take Away
- My audiences are learners, teachers, lecturers, environmentalists, chemical industrial entrepreneurs, chemical engineers, and any other related fields
