The caller was a colleague of Mario’s from Sweden, where the Nobel Prizes are awarded. He had good news: Molina, along with his colleague Dr. Sherwood Rowland and Dutch chemist Paul Crutzen, had just been awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry. Their research on the ozonosphere, which is one of the layers of the atmosphere, changed the science of atmospheric chemistry. It also changed the way we think about Earth’s blanket of air and how we affect it. |
