It’s National Chemistry Week! We have a couple of special posts planned in honor of this year’s theme, “Chemistry Colors our World.”

To kick off the week, here are just a few of the posts about color that we’ve published here at Sustainable Nano:

• How the Fruits Got Their Colors
• What is Color and How Can it Help Kill Cancer Cells?
• Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with Fluorescence
• Mimicking Nature’s Nanotechnology: From a Butterfly Wing to Anti-Counterfeit Technology
• Nanomaterials Making Their Way Into Fireworks
• Invisibility Cloaks & Tomato Juice – Two Videos About Light & Color
• How Do Black Lights Work, Why Do Highlighters Look So Bright, and How Can You Impress Your Significant Other With Science?

It’s also #RealTimeChem Week this week – check out @RealTimeChem on Twitter for glimpses into the everyday lives and work of chemists around the world.
