This is a fight for people’s lives, and as today’s decision shows, the momentum is on our side.

We’ve adorned ourselves with it for thousands of years and its very existence made pirates dizzy with greed. Its applications range from micro-circuitry and medical products to the coating of astronauts’ helmets.
