Incentivizing Sustainable Chemicals: A Policy Framework for Innovation, Manufacturing, and Market Transformation (Research Report)

A research report titled Incentivizing Sustainable Chemicals: A Policy Framework for Innovation, Manufacturing, and Market Transformation, released by Change Chemistry and the Sustainable Chemistry Catalyst at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, outlines why government incentives are critical to helping businesses scale more sustainable chemicals — and how those incentives can reduce risk, unlock investment, and enable real market adoption.

Engagement of early-career scientists in sustainable chemistry: science policy perspectives

As global sustainability challenges become more complex and interconnected, the engagement of scientists, and specifically early-career chemists in policymaking, is gaining urgency. This perspective highlights the current status of science policy engagement in chemistry across all continents. It identifies key institutional models, regional disparities and opportunities for action. Using examples from Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania, we explore how chemists are engaging and shaping the science policy interface.
