GREEN CHEMISTRY - FROM ITS BIRTH TO ITS TEACHING. An analysis of the activities that contributed to the birth of Green Chemistry (GC) about twenty years ago has shown that it emerged in response to the problems of pollution and wastes felt by the Chemical Industry. This close connection between GC and the Chemical Industry is similar to that found earlier between Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry before they separated. It was also found that since its very beginning the Chemical Industry has occasionally practiced GC. Broad implications of these findings to the teaching of GC are discussed.
