Preventing pollution is an important issue in the current world than cleaning up the environment. By tradition, chemists have designed products that are effective and economical. They have not considered the waste generated during processing of the new chemicals and products and its toxicity. Inventing any new products that are of concern to us or ecosystems ultimately goes into the environment at the end of the life of these substances, leading to accumulation, degradation and toxicity. Hence, it is always better to choose the process protocols that generate minimum waste and finished products with few chemicals usage and synthesis steps. Our science builds on great achievements by chemicals and chemists. It’s been more than 150 years that we have been finding a way to invent new molecules. And the modern chemistry with its inventions has improved a lot our lives providing an incredible array of products in every field (consumer products, cloths and electronics) and mainly save lives on this earth with new medicines.
