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

Carbon Capture and Storage, CCS, technologies have been identified as key to reduce harmful emissions and to mitigate the effects of climate change. A new study, focusing on leading CCS countries, Norway and Brazil, identifies how these technologies should be implemented equitably, applied to hard-to -abate industrial sectors, and not used to justify continued fossil fuel dependency.

During the unusually dry year of 2018, Sweden was hit by numerous forest fires. A research team led from Lund University, and partly financed by BECC, has investigated how climate change affects recently burnt boreal forests and their ability to absorb carbon dioxide. The boreal forests form a single biome that spans the entire Northern Hemisphere. These forests play a key role in the global clima

At the Pufendorf Institute, researchers come together to work beyond the boundaries of their usual disciplines. It is a space where ideas can be tested before they take the shape of formal projects, where colleagues meet across faculties, and where questions that require more than one perspective can be explored in depth. On 1 February, three brand new Advanced Study Groups will begin their work.
