TL;DR: Green Chemistry: What is green chemistry? as discussed by the authors presents the principles of green chemistry and evaluates the impact of chemistry on the environment. But, it is not a complete overview of all of the issues involved in green chemistry.
Abstract: 1: Introduction. 2: What is Green Chemistry?. 3: Tools of Green Chemistry. 4: Principles of Green Chemistry. 5: Evaluating the Impacts of Chemistry. 6: Evaluating Feedstocks and Starting Materials. 7: Evaluating Reaction Types. 8: Evaluation of Methods to Design Safer Chemicals. 9: Illustrative Examples. 10: Future Trends in Green Chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, a set of 12 principles consisting of known concepts (i.e., reduction in the use of reagents and energy, and elimination of waste, risk, and hazard) together with some new ideas (e.g., the useof natural reagents) are proposed for the future of GAC.
Abstract: The current rapid development of green analytical chemistry (GAC) requires clear, concise guidelines in the form of GAC principles that will be helpful in greening laboratory practices. The existing principles of green chemistry and green engineering need revision for their use in GAC because they do not fully meet the needs of analytical chemistry. In this article we propose a set of 12 principles consisting of known concepts (i.e. reduction in the use of reagents and energy, and elimination of waste, risk and hazard) together with some new ideas (i.e. the use of natural reagents), which will be important for the future of GAC.

TL;DR: This transformation will require the best of the traditions of science and innovation coupled with new emerging systems thinking and systems design that begins at the molecular level and results in a positive impact on the global scale.
Abstract: The material basis of a sustainable society will depend on chemical products and processes that are designed following principles that make them conducive to life. Important inherent properties of molecules need to be considered from the earliest stage-the design stage-to address whether compounds and processes are depleting versus renewable, toxic versus benign, and persistent versus readily degradable. Products, feedstocks, and manufacturing processes will need to integrate the principles of green chemistry and green engineering under an expanded definition of performance that includes sustainability considerations. This transformation will require the best of the traditions of science and innovation coupled with new emerging systems thinking and systems design that begins at the molecular level and results in a positive impact on the global scale.
