Ασφαλώς και ο όρος environmental friendly δεν είναι καλά και ακριβώς καθορισμένος από τους επιστήμονες αλλά περισσότερο βολέυει τους ακτιβιστές και τους μαρκετίστες. Εγώ μιλούσα για τον όρο green chemistry.

Paul Anastas, then of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, and John C. Warner developed 12 principles of green chemistry,[3] which help to explain what the definition means in practice. The principles cover such concepts as:
The 12 principles are:
1.It is better to prevent waste than to treat or clean up waste after it is formed.
2.Synthetic methods should be designed to maximize the incorporation of all materials used in the process into the final product.
3.Wherever practicable, synthetic methodologies should be designed to use and generate substances that possess little or no toxicity to human health and the environment.
4.Chemical products should be designed to preserve efficacy of function while reducing toxicity.
5.The use of auxiliary substances (e.g. solvents, separation agents, etc.) should be made unnecessary wherever possible and innocuous when used.
6.Energy requirements should be recognized for their environmental and economic impacts and should be minimized. Synthetic methods should be conducted at ambient temperature and pressure.
7.A raw material or feedstock should be renewable rather than depleting wherever technically and economically practicable.
8.Reduce derivatives - Unnecessary derivatization (blocking group, protection/ deprotection, temporary modification) should be avoided whenever possible.
9.Catalytic reagents (as selective as possible) are superior to stoichiometric reagents.
10.Chemical products should be designed so that at the end of their function they do not persist in the environment and break down into innocuous degradation products.
11.Analytical methodologies need to be further developed to allow for real-time, in-process monitoring and control prior to the formation of hazardous substances.
12.Substances and the form of a substance used in a chemical process should be chosen to minimize potential for chemical accidents, including releases, explosions, and fires.
Και όσο για την οικολογία, τι το ψάχνουμε; Δίπλα σε αυτή τη λέξη κολάνε όλες μα όλες οι άλλες (καλά τώρα μην το πάρετε και τοις μετρητοίς). Στις μέρες μας ούτε σε επιστημονικά ευρήματα στηρίζεται και σε μεγάλο βαθμό μαναντζάρεται με στόχο το κέρδος κάποιων.- the design of processes to maximize the amount of raw material that ends up in the product;
- the use of safe, environment-benign substances, including solvents, whenever possible;
- the design of energy efficient processes;
- the best form of waste disposal: not to create it in the first place.
