• Using milk from livestock to create pharmaceuticals • A unique asian tree that is a potential source of pesticides,
pharmaceuticals, and other products • The possibility that humans possess a "compass in the head,'' much
like homing pigeons, mollusks, honeybees, salmon, and bacteria • Making biodegradable plastics from potatoes and other crops • Turning environmental pollution into ordinary salt, carbon dioxide, and water Both educators and students can use What's Happening in Chemistry? as a springboard for discussions, experiments, and class projects.
