She grew up in oil-rich Norway, with a father who travelled the world working in the oil sector. Little did Lina Lefstad know that just two decades later she would be a researcher at the forefront of efforts to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and tackle the climate crisis. What if we could easily capture carbon dioxide from combined heat and power plants and industrial sites, cool it to liqu

A new study led by Lund University in Sweden shows that cities negatively affect the diversity of birds. There are significantly fewer bird species in urban forests compared with forests in the countryside - even if the forest areas are of the same quality. The researchers examined 459 natural woodlands located in or near 32 cities in southern Sweden. They counted the occurrence of different bird

By analysing over 100,000 field measurements as well as environmental data, an international research team has created maps that show how and when naturally regrowing forests bind most carbon. To fulfil climate goals and avoid the most serious consequences of global heating, we need to both reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and remove carbon dioxide that is already in the atmosphere.

The emergence of a mysterious area in the South Atlantic where the geomagnetic field strength is decreasing rapidly, has led to speculation that Earth is heading towards a magnetic polarity reversal. However, a new study that pieces together evidence stretching back 9,000 years, suggests that the current changes aren’t unique, and that a reversal may not be in the cards after all. The Earth’s magn

Många kvinnor är oförberedda på de obehag som klimakteriet ofta för med sig. Samtidigt är svensk klimakterievård otillräcklig – och ojämnt fördelad över landet. Barnmorskan Pernilla Ny, lärare och forskare vid Lunds universitet, sprider sin evidensbaserade kunskap så långt hon förmår. Hennes klimakteriekurs har sju gånger så många sökande som det finns platser. Klimakteriet, menopaus och kvinnors

I Sverige är grupptalan – som i det pågående Aurora-målet där 300 ungdomar stämmer staten för bristande klimatpolitik – en ovanlig företeelse. Alltför ovanlig menar rättssociologen Michael Molavi. Han menar att Sverige skulle vinna på fler grupptalsmål och förordar därför att staten ska finansiera rättegångskostnaderna. Den 21 mars meddelade Nacka tingsrätt att ungdomsgruppen Auroras stämningsansö
