The 25th Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering (GC&E) Conference Call for Symposia is now open. Brought to you by the American Chemical Society’s Green Chemistry Institute® (ACS GCI), the conference will be held June 14-16, 2021. The Call for Symposia is your opportunity to shape the technical sessions to be considered for next year’s conference. Proposals are due October 9, 2020, at 5 p.m. EDT (GMT-4).
2021 Conference Theme
The conference theme is Sustainable Production to Advance the Circular Economy. Linked directly to U.N. Sustainable Development Goal 12, Responsible Consumption and Production, the theme reflects the role of chemistry and engineering in creating a closed-loop economy for a sustainable future. The Committee is looking for proposals spanning the breadth and depth of green and sustainable chemistry and engineering.
