In May and June 2020, more that 300 dead elephants were found in Botswana´s Okavango Delta. Initially it was suspected that poaching was the reason, but it was later shown that they were poisoned by cyanobacteria. This is an increasing environmental problem, and recent work to create a global dataset on algal blooms shows significant changes in the last twenty years. Toxic algal blooms in water, k

The EAT-Lancet diet is a framework designed to promote environmental sustainability while also preventing common diseases such as type 2 diabetes. How do we know if the diet actually works? An international research team studied seven dietary scores and found that two of them were particularly good at evaluating adherence to the diet. Reliable diet scores are important when developing sustainable

It was not an entirely uncontroversial decision to gather cancer researchers in the abandoned AstraZeneca premises ten years ago. Carl Borrebaeck was pro vice-chancellor at the time and pushed for the move which in itself cost SEK 50 million in central university funds. “I was not very popular with the deans at that time,” he says. “But now it turns out that Medicon Village is a great success and

I samband med en ny rapport kring åtgärder som ska begränsa klimatförändringarna ser forskare vid Lunds universitet vissa hoppfulla tecken. Bland annat tror Lars J Nilsson, professor i miljö- och energisystem vid LTH, att det finns goda möjligheter att år 2050 nå nollutsläpp för industrier som stål, cement och kemi – där utsläppen av koldioxid idag är stora. För att nå klimatmålen måste utsläppen
