The cover picture shows a beautiful Indonesian coral reef. The inset is of a millimetre‐sized capsule designed to clean up oil spills from environmental waters. Such capsules move as a result of the Marangoni effect. Martin Pumera and co‐workers outline cleaning of oil droplets with these self‐propelled artificial capsules in their Communication on page 395 ff. They study the influence of different cleaning agents (that is, surfactants) on the removal of oil from a water/air interface.
