New data by the research infrastructure ICOS confirms that natural carbon sinks such as the ocean and forests are not stable. Climate change makes these sinks more vulnerable, in some cases even turning them into carbon emitters. This compromises current climate targets and action plans, reserachers say. Fluxes, the European Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, is a new publication by the reserach infrastruct

Almost one fourth of Sweden’s last unprotected old-growth forest was logged between 2003 and 2019. At this rate, all of these ecologically unique and valuable forests will be lost in about 50 years. These findings add to the growing body of evidence for widespread cryptic forest degradation across the global north. A small fraction of Sweden’s forests consists of older forests which have never pre

Frågan ”Hur kan man som universitet vässa sin innovationsmiljö”, var på agendan vid LERU-mötet ”Policy group enterprise and innovation” härom veckan. Universiteten i Europa har börjat positionera sig tydligare i vilken roll universiteten kan, och kanske rent av ska ta, i just innovationsarbetet framöver. I denna fråga har Lunds universitet all anledning att dra nytta av sitt väl upparbetade arbete
