Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
Nothing declared. Ingo Eilks is a full professor for chemistry education at the Department of Biology and Chemistry at the University of Bremen, Germany. Among others, one of his research interests is education for sustainable development (ESD) in connection with green chemistry, both for the secondary and tertiary educational levels. In particular, he is working on evidence-based curriculum development and teacher professional development to promote ESD in chemistry education. Recently, he received the 2017 award for the Incorporation of Sustainability into Chemical Education by the American Chemical Society. Vania Zuin is a professor at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar, Brazil) and guest professor at the University of York (UoY, England). Her background is Green Analytical Chemistry and Green Chemistry Education, with major interests in developing green analytical methodologies that are incipient to determine bioactive high-value organic substances extracted from Brazilian agro-industrial residues, particularly in separation science. Also, her research focuses on the development and dissemination of Green Chemistry educational material for Higher Education. Recent distinctions include the 52° and 57° National Literary Jabuti Awards (Brazilian Chamber of Book), the title of Honorary Visiting Fellow at the University of York (UK), Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC), President of the Brazilian Humboldt alumni Association, the IUPAC 2014 CHEMRAWN VII Prize for Atmospheric and Green Chemistry and the ACS-CEI Award for Incorporating Sustainability in Universities, sponsored by the American Chemical Society's Committee on Environmental Improvement (CEI).
