A new UK study, published in Food and Humanity Journal, suggests that facts about human health, climate change and environmental impact may not be enough to change the way we eat.
Instead, it’s our personal values -especially the old-fashioned virtue of frugality - that are more likely to inspire sustainable food choices.
In an era marked by rapid technological advancements, the traditional education system, with its rigid curriculum and prescribed learning paths, is increasingly seen as inadequate for preparing students to embrace the complexities of the modern world. Researchers have identified the tension between prescribed curriculum and student autonomy as the core issue of the educational system. This study analyzes how changes to the prescribed curriculum, pedagogy, and assessments can enhance student autonomy and learning.
29 April 2025/Kiel. Increasing the natural uptake of carbon dioxide (CO₂) by the ocean or storing captured CO2 under the seabed are currently being discussed in Germany as potential ways to offset unavoidable residual emissions and achieve the country’s goal of greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045. However, which carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and storage methods could actually be used depends heavily on local conditions. In Germany’s North Sea and Baltic Sea waters, the options are limited to just a few approaches. This is the conclusion of a first feasibility assessment carried out by researchers involved in the CDRmare research mission. The study was recently published in the journal Earth’s Future.
