The general goal of the applications of chemistry that people researched can be summarized as making the world a better place. It's great that this is the case, because it really feels like a lot of people don't care much about that. A lot of decision-making today is based on principal, not logic. And I don't mean political or "real world" logic. I mean the kind of logic that you would use in your role as a human being.
