N1 - Funding Information: Recently, FAPERJ, the Rio de Janeiro State Financial Research Foundation, launched the first call for specific support research, development, and innovation of chemical products and processes in green chemistry. The technical and scientific merit of the projects were focused on originality and its adherence to green chemistry theme, primarily following the guidelines outlined in the document “Green Chemistry in Brazil 2010–2030” from the CGEE [10]. The approved projects mainly focused on organic synthesis, followed by biomass and biocatalysis, which has a similar tendency observed in the distribution of the green chemistry publications Brazilian per area of knowledge from 2010 to 2012. As can be observed, there are several conjugated actions promoting green chemistry in Brazil, reflected by the increasing number of published scientific papers, contributing to introduce national demands and issues related to scientific and technological innovations in this field. Funding Information: In 2010, the Center of Management and Strategic Studies (CGEE) launched the book Green Chemistry in Brazil: 2010–2030 [10]. In 2012, the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development was held in Rio de Janeiro. The Rio+20 declaration was titled “The Future We Want”. The book Contribution from Brazilian Postgraduate Studies to Sustainable Development: Capes at Rio+20 was also launched by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel within the Ministry of Education, whose central purpose was to reinforce the necessity of new green products and process studies in Brazil [11]. Funding Information: In 2009, the first book in Portuguese containing the concepts of green chemistry was edited by Corrêa and Zuin [9]. In the same year, the project Sustainable Education and Environmental Development in Latin American started, sponsored by IUPAC and coordinated by Profs. Patricia Vazquez and Vânia Zuin. The aim of this project was to disseminate the green chemistry philosophy in all Latin American countries.
