Interesting to see this from the Business Travel Association

“Our research shows that most people still rely on their cars when travelling for work, which is no surprise. But it’s not necessarily because they prefer travelling by car, but because there’s no realistic alternative.”

My co-authored long read with Dan Taylor 🧑‍🌾 sharing reflections and worries for the future of farming from our interviewees in their own words

Family farmers say their way of life is an impossible dream when ‘the bread of life is worth less than rusty metal’
In the Fens of eastern England, small-scale farmers fear for their future amid ‘astronomical’ costs and flatlining income.

The Met Office’s latest report confirms what many farmers and citizens already know: the UK’s climate is changing rapidly.

As temperatures rise and weather patterns become more unpredictable – with flooding and drought commonplace – farmers are on the frontline of the crisis.

Climate change affects us all — but not equally

📘 Our new report highlights that while the EU & its Member States increasingly recognise justice as a key principle of climate adaptation, its practical application remains limited.

We’d be yellow if we were still covered by @eea.europa.eu. 1 Farmers & growers in the UK are starting to struggle with water shortages. 2 The foods we’d normally import are coming from drought-hit countries 3. On farm water storage should be a priority national infrastructure investment
🌍 Europe is facing an exceptionally dry spring in 2025: 37 out of 38 countries covered by the @EEA have been hit by drought.

Every now again it’s useful to repeat advice about accessing papers that are behind a paywall that excludes you. Email the author. My estimate is that 90% of academics are so thrilled that a living, breathing, possibly even reading, person shows interest that they will swiftly send you a copy.
