> The Question:
> This element is associated with Thomas Midgley and has had a global impact

> The Answer:
> The element is Lead (Pb)! The element derives its name from the Latin word
> "plumbum". The Romans used lead in their plumbing systems, some of which
> still functioning today.  Thomas Midgley Jr. has the unfortunate
> distinction of being associated with two of the biggest global
> environmental issues: tetraethyl lead and CFCs! Midgley was a chemist on
> the General Motors Dayton Research Labs teams that introduced tetraethyl
> lead and one of the first CFC materials (Freon 12). In 1921 he gave himself
> lead poisoning while demonstrating the tetraethyl lead was not harmful to
