From chemistry back to nature, an ethical perception of chemists

The damage of natural equilibrium nowadays requires urgent action. All global changes we face are the forms of self-reorganization process in nature. The long history of chemistry creates the means for overpowering nature for natural resources exploitation, for the sake of humankind. Chemistry is one of the key sciences to understand natural changes. Some probes in analytical chemistry can be the key information about the whole phenomena. Method development and validations in analytical chemistry must be in line with the need to preserve nature. This way technology must have good intension to assess its process and its risk management. Moreover, the power of big data can aid the need for chemists to examine earth condition as well as global common problems. In this paper, a rough survey about ethical issues regarding chemistry and its impact on the environment is reported. Ethics development in chemistry education needs to be put into action, from the very beginning of the knowledge transfer. An eco-reflexive chemistry education must be based also on chemist’s responsibility towards nature as a whole.
