A química verde e sustentável: Dos princípios à inserção na educação química

Green and sustainable chemistry has become one of the central pillars for constructing adequate chemical approach to socio-scientific training. It is essential to know the origin, definitions, principles, and developments of green and sustainable chemistry to provide an analytical view at its implementation in chemical education. Therefore, initially a theoretical review is presented on the definitions and foundations
of green chemistry and sustainable chemistry. Next, an analysis of national and international publications that have been discussing green and sustainable chemistry in chemical education is carried out. The survey gathered publications carried out in the period from 1998 to 2019 based on the methodology of bibliographic review. The results indicate that the insertion of green and sustainable chemistry, in different areas and levels of education, has been accompanied by a conceptual understanding of what green chemistry and sustainable chemistry are and how both are integrated
to meet economic, environmental, and social aspects such as fundamental issues.
