The climate issue is one of the biggest global societal challenges of our time. Research on where the climate is heading is an important part of that work, both to monitor the impact of emission reductions agreed between countries worldwide in Paris 2015, but also to be better prepared for the elements of climate change we will not be able to avoid. A climate model developed by researchers from Lu

During 7-8 of May, 80 researchers within MERGE and BECC met to learn about the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and how their research can be linked, and contribute, to the implementation of the goals. We are just as far from reaching the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) as Burkina Faso. We just have different challenges.This is one of many terse quotes delivered by Katherine Richardson, pr

By studying identical twins, researchers from Lund University in Sweden have identified mechanisms that could be behind the development of type 2 diabetes. This may explain cases where one identical twin develops type 2 diabetes. The study involved 14 pairs of identical twins in Sweden and Denmark. One twin had type 2 diabetes and the other was healthy.“Twins are a good model for finding mechanism

Climate change is a reality for communities globally, forcing governments and international agencies to propose climate adaptation measures. For many people, these top-down approaches don't always align with their needs, values or legal rights.

What inner capacities do we need to support a more sustainable society? During the past decades, focus has been on addressing societal crises through external – technical, economic or medical – solutions. But in order to create real change, we must also tackle the underlying root causes: our broken relationship to nature, other people and not least ourselves. Our current sustainability crises are

Nordic and Andean countries started their economic modernisation in the same way: with export of raw natural resources. Later on, Norway and Sweden became rich, while Bolivia, Chile and Peru followed a quite different path. What made them diverge from the common road? Different fiscal policies may be one of the reasons, new research from Lund University suggests. In the mid-19th century, Norway ex

In our everyday lives, we surround ourselves with electronics without really thinking about it. We go to work by car or train, travel by air when we go on holiday, and are reliant on our mobile phones, iPads and laptops. We take the products’ functions for granted, until they suddenly stop working. The fact is that this happens fairly often – every year in Sweden, we pay roughly SEK 2 billion to r
