Better living through water-splitting Chemists have known how to use electricity split water into hydrogen and oxygen for more than 200 years. Nonetheless, because the electrochemical route is inefficient, most of made nowadays comes from natural gas. Seh et al. review recent progress in electrocatalyst development accelerate water-splitting, reverse reactions that underlie fuel cells, related oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide reductions. A unified theoretical framework highlights need catalyst design strategies selectively stabilize distinct reaction intermediates relative each other. Science , this issue p. 10.1126/science.aad4998
