Pollution is a major driver of disease.
Harmful chemicals can travel far beyond where they are released, contaminating air, water & food systems and contributing to millions of premature deaths each year.
That’s why we must #BeatChemicalPollution using a #OneHealth approach: bit.ly/3Nxmjyl

👕👗🥻 From field to fashion, food & energy — cotton connects us all. It supports 100 million families worldwide, yet only 29% is produced sustainably.
Through science, innovation and better policies, we can make the cotton sector fairer and more resilient.

As Burns Night approaches, we’re celebrating the link between poetry, nature, and water research. Robert Burns wrote often about nature, rivers, and the land that sustains us, a reminder that water has always shaped our lives, communities, and culture.
As we celebrate Scotland’s national bard, we’re also reflecting on the importance of water research in protecting this vital resource for generations to come. Read this research paper on the challenges and opportunities for decentralized water technologies in Scotland - doi.org/10.2166/wp.2024.194
And read an article from the University of Dundee on climate resilient water safety plans - doi.org/10.2166/wcc.2024.293
