We all remember the disruptive boys in the class. The ones who shoplifted, got into playground fights and started smoking early. Some of these boys were quite simply displaying normal defiance and are now living a good and stable life as adults. But for a few of them, these were warning signs of risky behaviour that later led them on to a life of crime. Almost all teenagers have a tendency to brea

Business travel at the University took off again in November last year compared with the same month the year before. More business trips could mean that the University’s climate footprint is increasing again and that the drop seen in 2020 was a one-off phenomenon.

For the first time, the University has investigated the collective climate footprint of the entire organisation.
