As the need to find climate change solutions becomes ever more urgent, Cornell chemists are leading the way with innovative and far-reaching discoveries, including better electric batteries, carbon capture technologies, renewable plastics and improvements in solar cells.
As the need to find climate change solutions becomes ever more urgent, Cornell chemists are leading the way with innovative and far-reaching discoveries, including better electric batteries, carbon capture technologies, renewable plastics and improvements in solar cells.
“We firmly believe that chemistry has the potential to help solve many of the world's problems. At Cornell, we're working on those solutions,” says Geoffrey Coates, the Tisch University Professor in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology in the College of Arts and Sciences (A&S).
“I remain deeply optimistic that the technology, the science that we can discover, will lead to long term viable solutions,” says Andrew Musser, assistant professor of chemistry.
