I encourage you to read this article http://cen.acs.org/articles/95/i14/R= oadmap-Global-Engagement-competitive-advantage.html, and consider how you c= an help to address the following action items. ? Proactively advocate, initiate, and implement ACS international activitie= s. ? Provide ways for our members and prospective members to get involved thro= ugh initiatives that transcend revenue targets; to address global challenge= s through chemistry; and to develop a broad scientific understanding, appre= ciation of chemistry, and promotion of the image of chemistry. ? Develop and implement truly global activities that are science driven and= advance the interests and priorities of ACS member-volunteers with global = interests and thus measurably, with impact and meaning, fulfill Article II,= Section 3 of the ACS constitution: "The SOCIETY shall cooperate with scien= tists internationally and shall be concerned with the worldwide application= of chemistry to the needs of humanity."
