A new study by researchers and students at the University of Plymouth has shown that living walls – structures housing flowers and plants fitted to the outside of new and old buildings – can significantly enhance the biodiversity within urban environments

Researchers at Graz University of Technology and the University of Graz can use the technology to construct artificial biocatalysts. These new enzymes are significantly faster, more stable and more versatile than previous artificial biocatalysts.

New Joint Lab marks ŌURA’s first research entity in the APAC region, deepening a six-year partnership with NUS focussing on key health behaviours including sleep and physical activity

Scientists have solved a 66 million year old mystery about why the earth cooled after the age of the dinosaurs.

Engineered “biochar” made from waste wood and natural clay minerals could help buildings stay comfortable while cutting energy use for cooling by nearly a quarter, according to a new study in the journal Biochar.

Biochar, a charcoal like material made from plant and organic waste, is often promoted as a climate and soil “wonder solution,” but a new commentary warns that the reality is far more complex and that smarter deployment is urgently needed. The authors argue that biochar will only move from the margins to the mainstream if treated as part of a larger system that links technology, economics, and public policy.
