Abstract

The line dividing green chemistry from pseudo-green chemistry becomes fragile. The pressures to present as quickly as possible results in scientific and business spheres, associated with the incessant search for funding in strategic areas, such as the Environment and Health, leads to the development of “fast science”, which is not always accurate.

Keywords: Green chemistry; pseudo-Green chemistry; Fast science
