What are the environmental issues associated with our use of pharmaceuticals, and how can we address them? On this week's episode of the Chemical Journeys podcast, I am joined by Jason Snape, Research Professor at the University of York, and formerly Global Head of Environment at AstraZeneca. Jason and I discuss a wide range of topics, including sustainable healthcare in developing economies, regulatory persistence assessments of chemicals, environmental safety of pharmaceuticals, antimicrobial resistance, the EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive, the water industry and public attitudes to drinking water. Jason has a huge amount of knowledge to share about some of the most pressing challenges in society. Join us to explore potential solutions!

What are people saying about the Chemical Journeys podcast so far? “Chris Hughes has set up a podcast called Chemical Journeys, where he discusses people's careers and thoughts on chemistry. This is a fascinating podcast (if your a regulations nerd), where Chris talks to Peter Fisk about his 40 years involvement in chemical regulation. There's so much more in this podcast, highly recommended.” “I think it’s an excellent idea and helps to create a comprehensive overview of all the different developments in the field of chemicals management. I have enjoyed listening a few podcasts already – the one with Paul Thomas and Peter Fisk so far! I look forward to listening to more of them.” “I have enjoyed the?podcast?episodes that you have released recently, especially the question you ask about advice for those at the start of their career.” “Very professional with the jingle and everything and the content was great too of course.” “You’re a?natural?mate!?Looking forward to hearing the others.” “Great podcast, keep up the good work.” If you are looking for something new to listen to over the weekend, why not give the Chemical Journeys podcast a try? https://lnkd.in/eUHMrsKn #Chemicals #Environment #Health #Science #Policy

How does chemistry tie in with sustainability in the fashion sector? On this week's episode of the Chemical Journeys podcast, I am joined by Libby Sommer, an independent consultant working on sustainability for the apparel industry. Libby and I discuss her work advising companies (from startups to some of the biggest brands in activewear), the evolution of sustainability within the apparel industry, the costs of textile waste and how to mitigate this, and initiatives to develop safer and more sustainable chemicals. This is a great one if you're interested to learn about sustainability in clothing, and how chemicals are woven into the fabric of this! https://lnkd.in/eA9sk446 #Chemicals #Environment #Sustainability #LCA #Fashion

The European Chemicals Agency has published the Q&A from its recent webinar on the guidance for the new CLP hazard classes. Worthwhile reading if you are involved in classifying substances and mixtures for these hazards by the 2026 deadlines. There is a lot of useful information here to help clarify the requirements and improve understanding. Credit should go to ECHA for providing detailed responses to the almost 250 questions received during the webinar! If you're looking for support with these new hazards, feel free to contact Embark Chemical Consulting to see how we can help. #PBT #vPvB #PMT #vPvM #EndocrineDisruption

On this week's episode of Chemical Journeys I talk about environmental persistence, and why this needs to become a top priority for chemical manufacturers, producers of formulated products, and brands. I also share some notable recent developments and provide a look ahead to the upcoming SETAC Europe conference in May. This is a great one if you’re interested in learning more about biodegradability and environmental persistence, and how this issue is impacting the market and regulatory landscape for chemicals. https://lnkd.in/eeuH2Z8U #Chemicals #Environment #Persistence #Biodegradability
