The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released a comprehensive report detailing three years of progress on its PFAS Strategic Roadmap, originally introduced in 2021 to tackle per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination across air, land, and water. The Roadmap is built on three core objectives:
The GC&E Conference, hosted by the ACS Green Chemistry Institute®, is the premier global event for green chemistry and engineering. As the first and longest-running conference on this topic, GC&E attracts scientists, educators, industry professionals, and advocates to explore advancements, share best practices, inspire innovation, and build community dedicated to sustainable solutions.
Managed by ChemFORWARD, the data trust is designed to simplify access to chemical hazard data from dozens of credible sources, curate, maintain and continuously improve the data, and harmonize the information for actionable decision support that will accelerate the global transition to safer chemistry.
The data trust is populated and continually updated by licensed toxicologists using a comprehensive, globally accepted methodology. Each CHA is peer reviewed by independent toxicologists before being posted.
Pharos provides resources to assess human and environmental health hazards of chemicals and building materials, and tools to collaborate to find safer alternatives. Products listed in the Pharos database are evaluated based on a range of criteria, including their potential impacts on human health (e.g., toxicity, emissions), environmental impact (e.g., resource depletion, energy use), and overall sustainability performance. The Pharos Project promotes transparency by providing clear and accessible information about the materials listed in its database.
