Political enablers of ambitious climate policies: a framework and thematic review

Simon Andres Montfort

Currently, most research explaining why countries lead or lag in climate policy assumes a problem-oriented perspective, focusing on barriers to climate policy adoption. Here, we argue that correcting for past failures, solving problems, and bringing climat ...

Amine modification enables selective CO2 electroreduction to ethanol via coupling of carbon-containing intermediates

Jing Gao

Electrochemical CO2-to-ethanol conversion faces challenges due to competing ethylene formation. We demonstrate a strategy steering selectivity toward ethanol by modifying copper nanowires with N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMe). The TMe-Cu catalyst ...
