In addition to teaching biochemistry, he taught environmental science for 30 years. He maintained a leadership role in multiple community-based environmental organizations until his death in 2015. David represented the Mid-Hudson Section as the councilor for many years and attended all ACS national meetings.”—family of David Straus
