When scientists want to share their thinking and research, they often join their colleagues at conferences, where ideas percolate and cross-pollinate. In this space, we are creating the equivalent of an online, ongoing conference &mdash and everyone is invited to participate no matter their field. Here you can share and explore ideas about the practice of sustainability in fields from chemistry and environmental health sciences, to physics and engineering.
We hope this forum will help connect students, scientists, journalists and anyone interested in creating a more sustainable world so they can share their insights and their solutions. By advancing interdisciplinary collaboration, we hope the learning, discussion and debate in these pages will catalyze the growth of sustainable technologies in ways that truly shift scientific paradigms and bring real change to a world in need of creative solutions. Here are some of the virtual places we are creating where you can join the conversation:
In the Trenches
It's not all about science. Meet people from all over the world, in a wide variety of fields, who are achieving sustainability the old fashioned way &mdash with hard work and creativity, often in the face of overwhelming odds. Visit here to share your own stories as well as experience the stories of others.
Insp!ration
View or listen to talks given by some of the leading thinkers in sustainable chemistry, environmental health and green science, and be inspired by the thinking and events that led them to the conclusion that a sustainable world is the only kind of world that makes sense.
Real Problems, Real Solutions
Can your actions change the world? They can. Visit our Green Wiki and get &mdash or give &mdash inspiration for making sustainable choices.
Make a Difference
Become a member of the Institute for Green Science. We'll keep you up-to-date on what we're up to, and what others in the field of green science are doing around the world. Your membership and financial support will help fund our work and our programs, events and classes that advance the development of positive solutions for a more sustainable society. Join us online, in classrooms, at conferences and in the trenches as we work to solve real problems with real solutions.
