DESCRIPTION:A quarter of the UK’s CO2 emissions can be attributed to spa
 ce heating and cooling. This is primarily due to heating with natural gas 
 and cooling with compression of greenhouse gases\, and in a secondary fash
 ion due to insufficient thermal storage and poor thermal insulation. There
 fore there is great interest in developing solid-state heat pumps that can
  replace our environmentally damaging technologies for heating and cooling
 \, and solid-state thermal batteries that can enhance the storage of therm
 al energy. Thermal materials are at the core of these technologies\, and d
 uring this talk I will describe my work on mechanically responsive thermal
  materials for heating\, cooling and thermal storage applications.
