10 years of valuing nature: a conversation with TNC

A decade ago, two unlikely partners – a materials science company and a leading conservation association – partnered to discover how businesses could better value nature. Jennifer Molnar of The Nature Conservancy (TNC) discusses how TNC’s collaboration with Dow has evolved and resulted in easy-to-use tools that are being used by governments, businesses and organizations across the world.

Recycling plastics, growing opportunity

Dow is helping to close the loop in recycling plastics in India by partnering with manufacturing company Lucro Plastecycle to produce new plastic films made with recycled content from locally collected, difficult-to-manage flexible plastic waste.

Reducing embodied carbon together

The built environment is a major emitter of greenhouse gases. To help reduce operational carbon – the embodied carbon that buildings emit after the construction phase – Dow joined two leading industry associations to challenge architects and building owners to design and construct energy-efficient buildings.

Committed to green chemistry education

Ever wonder how green chemistry can become the norm? By helping support the scientists of tomorrow. See how Dow is joining Beyond Benign to help ensure 25% of graduating U.S. chemists have a background in green chemistry by 2025.

Creating China’s first “Milk Bottle Road”
