If you've been following the Olympics, you may have heard the claim that Paris 2024 is the most sustainable edition of the event in history.
But what does that mean for food at the Olympics?

Millions of Britons could miss out on the benefits of falling prices for electric vehicles because they live in “charging-point deserts” warns ECI expert. @_chris_brand_ @TSUOxford @UniofOxford @ipapernews

It’s been eye-opening and joyous to collaborate closely with marine ecologists to understand the nutrient and energetic connections between seabirds, land and see over the last few years @Marine_Science @NatureRecovery @naj_graham @lisamwedding @OxfordEcosystem @oxfordgeography
"Working in a team of terrestrial and marine researchers has made me appreciate what we all know intuitively to be true: terrestrial & marine ecology are not separate realms but deeply connected and interacting components of a single ecological whole" @ymalhi #ScientistSpotlight
Cheaper EVs could be pointless for millions in charge-point black spots. ECI's @_chris_brand_ "There is a real risk of creating a postcode lottery where access to charging points varies significantly across regions."

Our @NatureRecovery ecologists busy at Gibbets Close Nature Reserve today, just outside Oxford, looking at how invertebrate biodiversity and energetics change as farmland is left to revert naturally back to woodland
Job alert!
We are looking for a Geospatial Researcher to work in @NatureRecovery at the Environmental Change Institute.

“AI can be a double-edged sword. It can be a powerful tool for climate action... but the infrastructure needed to run AI is energy- and resource-intensive.” ECI DPhil student Felippa Amanta in @EcoWatch ecowatch.com/data-centers-el…
El Niño and La Niña: The climate phenomenon behind the extreme weather in 2024
ECI climate scientist Dr Neven Fučkar “I hope that La Niña will develop quickly and dampen global warming. But that’s not certain, it’s a very noisy system.”

Fossil-fuel phaseout 'too late' to meet aviation industry's net-zero goals. ECI's Prof Myles Allen tells a panel at the Farnborough International Airshow, we need to go way beyond carbon reduction and seriously back carbon removal. @OxfordNetZero

Here’s @ymalhi explaining some of the science from his recent visit to Rwanda. Does he ever sleep?! ;-)
This short video (filmed a few days ago in Rwanda’s magnificent Nyungwe Forest) explains the unexpected methane-aborbinb climate benefit of tree bark

Very happy to share our latest discovery "Global atmospheric methane uptake by upland tree woody surfaces" from the pages of @Nature. To summarise, upland trees are better for climate than we thought and are a new sink term in the methane budget.

Researchers at the ECI and @unibirmingham have discovered tree bark surfaces play an important role in removing methane gas from the atmosphere. ECI multidisciplinary collaboration of ecosystems and climate scientists. @ymalhi @OxfordPhysics @GauciGauci

Climate change and geopolitical trade tensions threaten world trade flows. Thanks to @Esri's support, online platform PortWatch was set up by @IMFNews and @ecioxford to assess the domestic and international trade impact of actual and future disruptions.

A machine learning model capable of both accurate weather predictions and climate simulations is presented in Nature this week. ECI's Dr Neven Fučkar is encouraged by the development. @Nature

As the Amazon loses trees, thinning out the canopy, it's less able to shade vegetation from scorching sunlight and hold on to moisture making the rainforest drier and more flammable. ECI's Dr Berenguer tells @sjdailystar @Erika_Berenguer
