The American Chemical Society’s Committee on Environmental Improvement announced this month that it is honoring Mohan for his efforts to incorporate green chemistry principles and sustainability into chemistry education. He’ll formally receive the award next year at the 253rd ACS National Meeting & Exposition, where he will give an invited talk on his work in green chemistry education.
