The Inside Back Cover, which was hand‐drawn by a theoretical chemist who is also an art enthusiast, illustrates the pathway of the synthesis of green methanol (MeOH) on Au nanoparticles supported on ZnO. The green MeOH is produced using H 2 generated by the electrolysis of water using excess electrical energy from renewable sources and CO 2 obtained by CO 2 capture and sequestration. This concept enables the storage of electrical energy in the form of chemical energy as well as the utilization of CO 2 leading to the reduction of overall CO 2 emissions, both of which are major challenges today. More details are available in the Communication by Behm et al. on page 456 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.201402645 ).
