| Abstract |
|
Many students today are profoundly interested in the sustainability of their world. With growing public concern over global warming and greenhouse gases, students want to understand how human actions affect the health of our planet. Students are deeply concerned about pollution. They practice recycling. Moreover, they want to secure a healthy Earth for future generations. As students of chemistry, they have a unique opportunity to start at the ground floor of the exciting and expanding field of green chemistry.

| Chemistry Teacher Connection |
|
The "Chemistry Teacher Connection" (CTC) is especially for high school chemistry teachers. For only $40/year, it offers an online-only subscription to CLIC along with membership in the Division of Chemical Education, normally $65/year. CTC subscribers receive access to all articles and supplements from 1996 through the current issue.
|

| C&EN CLICs |
|
Through special arrangement with the ACS, JCE High School CLIC is now able to provide subscribers with online access to Chemical & Engineering News articles that have been selected specifically for secondary science instructors and their students.
