In this debate the participants discussed chemistry as a science that allows the seemingly impossible to come true, where imagination, and ethics, are its only limits. The panel highlighted the need to have proper scientific advice in policy-making, and warned against the implications of unfounded beliefs. It also discussed the relation between academia and industry in the production of scientific knowledge. Finally, the panel concluded that a responsible and sustainable society, needs not only responsible science, but also responsible and knowledgeable citizens, companies and politicians.<\/p>\n<p><img data-attachment-id=\"991\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/chemistry-society-towards-a-sustainable-future-through-chemistry\/seville-ecc6-society\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?fit=1000%2C667&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1000,667\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"seville-ecc6-society\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?fit=940%2C627&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-991 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society-300x200.png?resize=300%2C200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"seville-ecc6-society\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.euchems.eu\/newsletters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Seville-ECC6-Society.png?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chemistry and Society were the focal point of a debate that counted with the participation of Carlos Negro (Foro Qu\u00edmica &hellip;
