Pages 957-1056
About the Cover:

The kaleidoscope of environments on this month's cover reflect the wide potential of impact by human activity on the rest of the natural world. The potential impact of environmentalism on the chemistry curriculum is just as wide and is reflected in the Symposium starting on page 959 as well as many other articles in this issue, described on page 958.
