Nature is a source of well-being and recovery for many people. However, research shows that there is also a growing number of individuals who experience negative emotions, such as fear, discomfort, or even disgust, toward nature. The phenomenon, called biophobia, is now highlighted in a new study from Lund University. “Research has long assumed that people fundamentally feel positive emotions towa

Solar storms can be far more powerful than previously thought. A new study has found evidence for the third known case of a massive solar storm in historical times. The researchers believe that society might not be sufficiently prepared if a similar event were to happen now. Our planet is constantly being bombarded by cosmic particles. However, at times the stream of particles is particularly stro

Extensive power outages and satellite blackouts that affect air travel and the internet are some of the potential consequences of massive solar storms. These storms are believed to be caused by the release of enormous amounts of stored magnetic energy due to changes in the magnetic field of the sun’s outer atmosphere - something that until now has eluded scientists’ direct measurement. Researchers

New research in five EU countries reveals stakeholders’ views on what is needed to enable a shift towards 1.5° C-compatible lifestyles. Bans and taxes for unsustainable behaviour and outcomes, positive incentives for low-carbon attitudes, and better public funding for basic services, are seen as essential climate policies to overcome current barriers to action at the household level - according to

An exciting, interesting and well-visited BECC annual meeting went off October 17-18 at Falkenberg Grand Hotel. The program was filled with lessons from the past and implications for the future regarding biodiversity conservation and policy. The meeting ended with perspectives from a climate journalist and his great tips on how to communicate climate research to the public (and journalists!).

Over 40 billion euro is given annually to European agriculture as direct payments under the Common Agricultural Policy. Yet, the policy fails to deliver on what EU citizens are promised. This is a key message from new research by AgriFood Economics Centre and Centre for Environmental and Climate Research at Lund University. Direct payments are area-based income support under the Common Agricultura

Astronomers have managed to take unusually colourful images of a group of galaxies using a telescope in Hawaii. The photos reveal new facts about this spectacular galaxy cluster. Remnants of star matter attest to a phenomenon known as galactic cannibalism. At a distance of approximately 250 million light years from our planet lies a galaxy cluster called Stephan’s Quintet. It consists of several c

When the city of Copenhagen decided to build a new underground station in the Assistens Cemetery where many famous Danes are buried, they had to remove part of the entire north-eastern corner of the cemetery and re-bury the people who had been laid to rest in this area. This presented a unique opportunity for archaeologists at the Museum of Copenhagen, under the leadership of Sian Anthony from Lun
