Abstract

In recent decades, green chemistry dominated the imagination of sustainability scholars all over the world and was embraced by leading global universities and companies. This new concept is supposed to address the environmental crisis by making chemistry safer and less polluting. And yet, under this seemingly straightforward success story hides a tangled and ambiguous reality: alternative frameworks, shoddy greenness criteria, and power struggles. This book retraces the history of the green chemistry concept and critically assesses its claims and dominant narratives about it. It is an indispensable guide for all those interested in the challenges of sustainability, whether they have background in chemistry or not. Its underlying question is: is green chemistry really that green?
绿色化学
近几十年来,绿色化学主导了全世界可持续发展学者的想象,并被全球领先的大学和公司所接受。这个新概念旨在通过使化学更安全、污染更少来解决环境危机。然而,在这个看似简单的成功故事背后,隐藏着一个复杂而模糊的现实:不同的框架、劣质的绿色标准和权力斗争。这本书回顾了绿色化学概念的历史,并批判性地评估了它的主张和关于它的主要叙述。对于所有对可持续发展的挑战感兴趣的人来说,无论他们是否有化学背景,这本书都是不可或缺的指南。它的根本问题是:绿色化学真的那么环保吗?
