As I mentioned, I’m not the one in the household with the nanotech expertise. Jon’s got a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry. He translates everything for me, most of the time. However, I will just throw in that I DID actually win 1st in state when I was in I think 8th grade for my science project. Yup. So I can at least SOUND reasonably articulate as long as I understand what I’m talking about, and I have some level of affinity for all this stuff, if I apply myself a little. To this point – trying to understand green chemistry, it’s nice to find this: an organization whose main aim is "to promote awareness and facilitate education, training and practice of Green Chemistry in industry, commerce, academia and schools."
Check it out: the Green Chemistry Network. Lots of good links on their site too:
