The 21st century will see fundamental changes in chemical manufacturing and chemical use worldwide. The growing appreciation that we cannot continue to use resources as though they were unlimited is a vital part of sustainability and must be recognized within green chemistry. The latest and more holistic green chemistry metrics for pharmaceutical processes accommodate this concern as one of the key impacts to take into consideration.
