The UK has come a long way in decarbonising electricity. With the closure of the country’s last coal-fired power station, we’ve entered a new era of cleaner energy. Yet, one major challenge remains: how we heat our homes and buildings. Right now, heating is responsible for around 25% of UK carbon emissions, and only 6%...

The way we produce and consume food has a significant impact on the environment. Food systems are responsible for up to 30% of all human-related greenhouse gas emissions, with the majority originating from agricultural production. This makes them a significant driver of climate change. At the same time, most of the world’s traditional farming...
What if fibre optic cables could do more than deliver our high-speed internet? What if they could also help us listen to the Earth, capturing the subtle seismic whispers and temperature shifts happening deep beneath our feet? That’s the idea behind fibre optic distributed sensing - a technology that turns standard optic cables into a...
Our monthly spotlight on the work and lives of the next generation of researchers passionate about the energy transition. Time in Leeds Ravi joined the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds in 2021 to pursue a degree in geophysics. In 2023, he spent a year at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore...
