Co-Production in Climate Change Research: Reviewing Different Perspectives
Global environmental challenges like climate change are likewise challenging our conceptions of science, and the role of science in society. Climate science is having a growing influence on our lives – in the media, government policy, our schools or corporate...
Slicing the Pie: How Big Could Carbon Dioxide Removal Be?
If 2°C warming by 2100 is to be prevented, it will become important to adopt strategies that not only avoid CO2 emissions, but also allow for the direct removal of CO2 from the atmosphere.

Criticality of Materials: “The Great Transition” Symposium in Darmstadt, Germany
The symposium “The Great Transition” brought together leading scientists to address the criticality of materials as key to sustainable technologies.
How Degradable are Biodegradable Polymers in Water?
The stability of biodegradable polymers in both fresh water and sea water is investigated to determine how degradable they really are.
Never Say Never
The argument for making synthetic fuel from CO2 using renewable electricity in an increasingly electrified world is by now a familiar one. It hinges on the unlikely scenario that lithium ion batteries will never power the massive fleet of large-volume transportation...
An Artificial Leaf for Solar Water-Splitting
Researchers develop a highly versatile and adaptable artificial leaf for solar water-splitting in various natural environments.
Trace TNT Detection: Reducing Potential Security and Environmental Threats
The enhanced emission of Cu nanocrystals/MOF composites is selectively quenched by TNT.
Mitigation and Adaptation in Polycentric Systems
The potential of polycentric governance for promoting both climate mitigation and adaptation is well established. Yet, dominant conceptualizations of polycentric governance pay scant attention to how power dynamics affect the structure and the outcomes of governance.
