Abstract
1 March 1869 is the date of a discovery that changed the course of science in the world. On that day, Dmitry Mendeleev completed his work on the periodic table of elements, which would play a fundamental role in the future of chemistry – but also in physics, biology, astronomy and geochemistry. Even more interesting is that he revolutionized the ideas of what is now termed sustainable development.
