Jay Harman

In the burgeoning field of biomimicry, bioneers are designing a technological civilization that harmonizes with nature’s operating instructions. Inventor Jay Harman models the forms and dynamics of water with astounding results. Chemist Paul Anastas is re-inventing a “Green Chemistry” that transforms how we make things. Imitating nature is paying off for the economy, people and the planet.

John Warner

Aired 11/21/10JOHN WARNER and Paul Anastas are the founders of green chemistry and co-authors of Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice, in which, they establish 12 guiding principles for chemists. In 1996 Warner left a lucrative job at Polaroid to found the nation's first doctoral program in green chemistry, and in 2007 he founded Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry, an innovation incubator, in Wilmington, Mass.Green Chemistry is a revolutionary approach to the way that products are made; it is a science that aims to reduce or eliminate the use and/or generation of hazardous substances in the design phase of materials development. It requires an inventive and interdisciplinary view of material and product design. Green Chemistry follows the principle that it is better to consider waste prevention options during the design and development phase than to dispose or treat waste after a process or material has been developed.http://www.warnerbabcock.com/http://www.epa.gov/gcc/

Q&A: John Warner/Paul Anastas - founders Green Chemistry and co-authors of Green Chemistry

Green chemistry, environmental protection and safety, science education. Dr. Paul Anastas, known as the Father of Green Chemistry, was recognized in 2005 as one of the most influential people in science and technology in the Scientific American 50. Dr. Anastas has served in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy as Assistant Director for Environment. Prior to joining the White House in 1999, Dr. Anastas was Chief of the Industrial Chemistry Branch of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency since 1989.
