Green Chemistry: Better Living Through Nature
The chemicals we manufacture for modern needs are complex synthetic compounds. Most are untested and some are toxic to nature and the human body.

Join us as we explore how by following the lead of nature we may be able to transform petro-chemistry into biochemistry.
