From air quality chemists, materials scientists, and public health experts to environmental engineers, research chemists, and more—the women and men who work in green chemistry come from many different backgrounds and many different fields. This book introduces students to 12 fascinating scientists working in this field today. The scientists describe their interests when they were growing up and the people who inspired them. They describe what they do, how they got there, and why they enjoy it. And they encourage students to think about their own interests and future careers.
