In January, McKinsey & Company released a sweeping report that explores what a successful net-zero transition would entail. The report makes it clear that decarbonizing our economies is a worthwhile endeavor, but it also highlights the challenges inherent in making the shift. One particular challenge - ensuring that low-emission supply of energy matches shifts in demand - may prove to be make-or-break when it comes to solving the climate crisis.

When it comes to materials science, the natural world is as good as it gets. Through the practice of biomimicry, humanity can develop new materials that solve a wide range of environmental challenges. For that to happen though, we need more materials scientists to embrace biomimicry.

To solve our most challenging environmental and social problems, we need economic thinking that sees people as more than merely self-interested.
