Chief Executive Officer
Message
from our CEO
For seven years, I've worked in the chemical industry while serving as a volunteer leader with Climate Reality Philippines.
My experiences revealed the staggering amounts of hazardous waste produced and the immense costs associated with managing it. As I engaged in climate change awareness activities, I noticed the limited involvement of Filipino chemists in these critical campaigns, despite their role in designing chemicals that impact our environment and health.
This realization led me to establish Green Chemistry Philippines. Over the past four years, I've been conducting seminars, talks, and training on chemical sustainability across various industries and academia.
I'm proud of our growing online community and excited to pursue more impactful projects promoting chemical sustainability in the Philippines.
Our planet,
our responsibility.
Witnessing the environmental impact of hazardous waste in the industry inspired me to take action. Our mission is to empower Filipino chemists to lead in sustainable practices, and our growing community reflects our commitment to making a positive impact. We’re excited to continue this journey, creating meaningful projects that drive chemical sustainability in the Philippines.
The values
we uphold
Our mission is to transform the chemical industry and academia by promoting sustainable practices through Green Chemistry Philippines. We aim to empower Filipinos to lead in reducing hazardous waste and environmental impact. Success is measured by the widespread adoption of green chemistry principles, driving a future where chemistry actively contributes to a healthier planet.
The work
we do
In four years, Green Chemistry Philippines has advanced our mission of promoting sustainable chemical practices. We've conducted talks, seminars, and training sessions across various sectors. Despite challenges in raising awareness, we've celebrated the growing community and adoption of green practices. Our journey shows the impact of education and inspires others to join us.
