Green chemistry is the new and rapid emerging branch of chemistry for the environment. It is really a philosophy and way of thinking that can help chemistry in research and production to develop more eco-friendly solutions. Green chemistry is a science based non-regulatory and economically driven approach to achieve the goals of environmental protection and sustainable development. All chemical wastes should be disposed of in the best possible manner without causing any damage to the environment and living beings. Another way to save the environment through sustainable chemistry is to make use of renewable food stocks. This article presents selected examples of implementation of green chemistry principles in everyday life, in industry and in domestic purpose.
