Chemistry World October 2007 Mark Peplow	Chemistry's Big Question The way that we currently produce our energy -- for light, heat and transportation -- is clearly unsustainable. Chemistry really can save the world -- but scientists must be canny about selecting the most commercially realistic ways of achieving that.
Chemistry World October 2007 Derek Lowe	In the Pipeline One of the biggest areas of chemical research these days is in catalytic processes. It's one of the places we can really improve our processes, especially when you count the waste stream (as you should) as part of the total energy bill.
Chemistry World October 2007 Philip Ball	The Crucible Feel free to make photovoltaics better. But don't forget they have to be cheaper, too.
Chemistry World October 2007 Bernard Bulkin	Can Chemistry Save the Planet? If we are to scale back our greenhouse gas emissions without society juddering to a halt, 21st century transport will need 21st century fuels. And of all the sciences, it is chemistry that is best placed to deliver them.
Chemistry World October 1, 2007 Lewis Brindley	Semiconductor Splits Water with Sunlight Scientists in Germany have developed a promising new catalyst that splits water using sunlight -- and stores the hydrogen and oxygen produced.
Military & Aerospace Electronics September 2007 Courtney E. Howard	European Union launches Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals regulation The EU's recently enacted REACH law makes industry manufacturers, importers, and systems developers responsible for the identification, management, and substitution of chemical substances.
Chemistry World September 26, 2007 James Mitchell Crow	Interview: Energy Research Lights up Both a professor of Energy and Chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Daniel Nocera talks about his research into harnessing solar energy to make fuel from water.
Chemistry World September 25, 2007 Richard Van Noorden	Magnetic Dreams Disputed Magnetochemists are disputing the breakthrough discovery of a metal-organic material which its inventors claimed to be magnetic at room temperature and stable in air.
Wired September 24, 2007 Evan Ratliff	One Molecule Could Cure Our Addiction to Oil Scientists have long known how to turn trees into ethanol, but doing it profitably is another matter.
Wired September 24, 2007 Evan Ratliff	The Formula: From Grass to Gas The process behind converting raw plants to ethanol.
