“Without a standard definition that captures the full range of activities within sustainable chemistry, it is difficult to define the universe of relevant players,” testified Persons.
“Without agreement on how to measure the sustainability of chemical processes and products, companies may be hesitant to invest in innovation they cannot effectively quantify, and end users are unable to make meaningful comparisons that allow them to select appropriate chemical products and processes.”
