That eating plenty of vegetables, wholegrains and legumes is beneficial for health is well known. More surprising, however, is that people who eat in a environmentally-friendly way also display nutritional values that are better than researchers had expected. This is shown in a new study by Anna Stubbendorff at the Agenda 2030 Graduate School. The EAT–Lancet diet is a global dietary guideline deve

Utsläppen från våra flygresor har minskat under 2024, jämfört med föregående år. Flygresorna står för den stora delen av våra utsläpp från tjänsteresor och därför har vår totala klimatpåverkan från tjänsteresor minskat även om utsläppen från bilresor ökat. Varje år skickar universitetet i samband med årsredovisningen en redovisning av vårt miljöledningsarbete till Naturvårdsverket, som samordnar s
