9th Summer School on Sustainable Chemistry for Sustainable Development
Sustainable Chemistry and Climate Crisis
The climate crisis is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Without additional efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, global warming is likely to exceed 2°C by the end of the 21st century (UNEP 2022). The programme of the summer school includes theoretical lectures, practical workshops, group discussions and an excursion to exemplify and deepen important aspects of sustainable chemistry and climate crisis.
The first part of the summer school will provide an overview and the latest insights in sustainable chemistry itself and chemicals management in general. In the second part participants will gain insights into an understanding of the challenges and latest developments of innovation within the chemical industry for reducing GHG emissions. Related value chains will be elaborated focusing on Sustainable Chemistry, low-emission processes and products.
