Chemists Celebrate Earth Day (CCED)
CCED 2011 salutes the International Year of Chemistry (IYC), and this year’s theme is “Energy: It’s Everywhere.” The theme will introduce the topic of alternative energy as a key aspect of sustainability. The American Chemical Society (ACS) is developing outreach materials supporting IYC’s four quarterly themes: environment, energy, materials, and health, says ACS Membership Specialist Clinton Harris. The ACS publication Celebrating Chemistry, to be available in print and online, will contain articles, hands-on activities, puzzles/games, and an interview featuring chemists discussing their careers.
