PetaPixel writes about Kodak's recent designation by the American Chemical Society as a National Historic Chemical Landmark. The ACS is a pillar organization for chemists and chemistry around the world.
ACS President Angela Wilson said that the award “honors George Eastman, Eastman Kodak, and the many generations of Kodak chemists, scientists, and engineers who made photography an everyday part of our lives before the advent of smartphones and digital cameras.”
Kodak continues to supply film and chemistry for photographers to this day. The company has invested millions in protecting the environment and produces materials within the environmental regulations of today.
