Analysis of recent publications in green analytical chemistry shows the current trends and future needs in this area. The main issues are related with search for cheaper, more efficient, more accurate, greener and miniaturized alternatives. Miniaturization is perhaps, the most notable current trend in analytical chemistry. Rapid developments and improvements in instrumentation have led to impressive range of benchtop technology and portable devices. In addition, an important issue that has been explored by many authors is metrics of green analytical chemistry, such as Analytical Eco-Scale or Green Analytical Procedure Index. Implementation of interdisciplinary methods is an emerging trend in green analytical chemistry. Employment of multicriteria decision analysis, a technique which is used in environmental management, to green analytical chemistry is very popular and common trend. Another important issue that will determine the future of green analytical chemistry is education and popularization of this concept in the society. This chapter summarizes contemporary problems and gives future perspectives of Green Analytical Chemistry.
