For years, chemists have been promoting a better world through recyclable plastics, cleaner-burning fuels, phosphate-free detergents, environmental monitoring, and green chemistry initiatives. To promote the positive role that chemistry plays in the world, ACS established the Chemists Celebrate Earth Week (CCEW) public awareness campaign. During CCEW, the Southern Arizona Local Section of ACS (SAZACS) members and chemistry enthusiasts celebrate by coordinating the CCEW Illustrated Poem Contest and a booth during Tucson's Earth Day event and communicating the importance of chemistry. Learn more about what your local section is doing to celebrate Earth Day!
