High-end climate change risks for Germany: Adaptive capacity between incrementalism and transformative adaptation
Given the combination of still increasing greenhouse gas emissions and growing challenges to climate policies worldwide, it is necessary to adopt a reasonable worst-case risk management perspective to adaptation. We consider the risks of high-end climate change to Germany by varying its societal and political adaptive capacity (AC) and we develop different adaptation pathways in selected sectors through the year 2100 under the assumption of both …
The Stonehenge bluestones did not come from Waun Mawn in West Wales
This paper examines the hypothesis that Waun Mawn in West Wales provided the bluestone monoliths that were used at Stonehenge. Some archaeologists believe that the site supports the last remains of a giant stone circle or ‘Proto Stonehenge’ which was dismantled and transported to Salisbury Plain around 5000 years ago. It was claimed, after three excavation seasons at Waun Mawn in 2017, 2018 and 2021, that there is firm evidence of some standing s…
Practical wisdom and virtue ethics for knowledge co-production in sustainability science
Transforming knowledge systems for life on Earth: Visions of future systems and how to get there
Formalised knowledge systems, including universities and research institutes, are important for contemporary societies. They are, however, also arguably failing humanity when their impact is measured against the level of progress being made in stimulating the societal changes needed to address challenges like climate change. In this research we used a novel futures-oriented and participatory approach that asked what future envisioned knowledge sy…
Advancing Decision-Visualization Environments—Empirically informed Design Recommendations
Toward Sustainable Urban Metabolisms. From System Understanding to System Transformation
Building actor-centric transformative capacity through city-university partnerships
Interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research: Finding the common ground of multi-faceted concepts
Physical activity and associated factors from a cross-sectional survey among adults in northern Tanzania
The prevalence of PA in this population was high. However, there is need for PA programs to maintain the high level of compliance during and following the transition to a more urban-based culture
The role of sustainability in nuclear energy plans—What do national energy strategies tell us
How much sustainability substance is in urban visions? – An analysis of visioning projects in urban planning
