Sustainability In The Biotech Industry Statistics

Sustainability In The Biotech Industry Statistics

Sustainability in biotech is moving from aspiration to measurable operating reality, with the global green chemistry market projected to grow 7.0% annually from 2021 to 2027 alongside major capital markets for low impact inputs such as $47.6 billion in 2023 bio based chemicals. The page connects that momentum to the hard constraints that still trip up biotech scaling, from Scope 3 measurement and sustainability reporting take up to a worrying baseline where 55% of global plastic waste ends up in landfill, incineration, or leakage.
