A white paper released Feb. 15 by the Environmental Protection Agency’s Science Policy Council outlines the agency’s nanotechnology-research needs. The group calls for continued research into the ecological and health risks of nanotechnology, prevention of pollution by nanomaterials, and nanotechnology to benefit the environment.
For example, the report suggests that the agency support research on nanotechnology’s uses in green energy and in environmental remediation.
