- **Event Description**: Join Penn Climate for a discussion by Karen Golberg titled "Developing Alternatives to Oil as Feedstocks for our Chemicals and Liquid Fuels"About this EventPenn Climate welcomes Karen Goldberg, Vagelos Professor in Energy Research and Chemistry, and the inaugural Director of the Vagelos Institute for Energy Science and Technology, for a seminar titled "Developing Alternatives to Oil as Feedstocks for our Chemicals and Liquid Fuels."It is widely accepted that decarbonization of our energy systems will have the largest impact on mitigation of climate change. But, with a move away from oil as a primary energy source, we will need to develop other sustainable sources for our liquid fuels, and we will also need to reinvent our chemical industry and economy. Gasoline and other liquid fuels are the major products that are made from oil, but oil is also the source of most of the chemicals that are used to make all the consumer goods that we have come to rely on. Our medicines, body-care products, detergents, paints, plastics, fibers, fabrics, and essentially everything we use everyday are currently derived from petroleum. Petroleum has provided the carbon-based building blocks used to make all these consumer goods, all of which are available in sufficient supply and at low cost due to the economy of scale of the enormous oil refining industry. Fundamentally new pathways, from new sources, to these chemicals and liquid fuels that we depend on must be developed to successfully transition to a sustainable future. In this presentation, Karen Goldberg will describe how we arrived at our current energy landscape, projections on where we are going, and present some of the exciting strategies that scientists are pursuing to allow us to use natural gas, carbon dioxide and even waste plastic to prepare our chemicals and fuels in the future.
