B. GREEN CHEMISTRY PRINCIPLE
Paul Anatas who is
dubbed as the Father of
Green Chemistry with John
C. Warner (1998) proposed
several principles of green
chemistry. Green chemistry
is a chemical approach that
aims to maximize efficiency
and minimize harmful
effects on human health and
the environment. The
principle of green chemistry
proposed by Anastas and
warner is known as The
Twelve Principles of Green
Chemistry, which means the
12 principles of green
