  • Research priorities for global food security under extreme events

    Open AccessZia Mehrabi, Ruth Delzeit et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2022

    Extreme events, such as those caused by climate change, economic or geopolitical shocks, and pest or disease epidemics, threaten global food security. The complexity of causation, as well as the myriad ways that an event, or a sequence of events, creates cascading and systemic impacts, poses significant challenges to food systems research and policy alike. To identify priority food security risks and research opportunities, we asked experts from …

  • Description of E-1027

    Jean Badovici, Tim G Benton et al.ARTICLEWest 86th2021

    The villa by the sea - E1027 - designed by Eileen Gray with the help of her friend Jean Badovici, is recognised as one of the great works of modern architecture.

  • Aligning evidence generation and use across health, development, and environment

    Open AccessHeather Tallis, Katharine Kreis et al.ARTICLECurrent Opinion in Environmental…2019References: 6

    Although health, development, and environment challenges are interconnected, evidence remains fractured across sectors due to methodological and conceptual differences in research and practice. Aligned methods are needed to support Sustainable Development Goal advances and similar agendas. The Bridge Collaborative, an emergent research-practice collaboration, presents principles and recommendations that help harmonize methods for evidence generat…

  • Designing sustainable landuse in a 1.5 °C world

    Open AccessTim G Benton, Rob Bailey et al.ARTICLECurrent Opinion in Environmental…2018Cited by: 3References: 12

    Land provides a range of critical services for humanity (including the provision of food, water and energy). It also provides many services that are often socially valuable but may not have a market value. Demand projections for land-based services, accounting for the significant requirement for negative emissions needed to meet a 1.5 °C pathway, may exceed what can be sustainably supplied. It is therefore critical to explore how to optimise land…

    Open AccessJonathan Green, Gemma Cranston et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2016Cited by: 2References: 6

    Delivering access to sufficient food, energy and water resources to ensure human wellbeing is a major concern for governments worldwide. However, it is crucial to account for the 'nexus' of interactions between these natural resources and the consequent implications for human wellbeing. The private sector has a critical role in driving positive change towards more sustainable nexus management and could reap considerable benefits from collaboratio…

  • The many faces of food security

    Open AccessTim G Benton, Tim BentonARTICLEInternational Affairs2016Cited by: 1

    Food insecurity occurs when people do not have secure access to food necessary for a healthy life. The food-insecure are typically the poor, and the traditional focus of food insecurity thinking has been the global poor. Increasingly, it is being recognized that in the rich world, food insecurity manifests itself in calorie-rich but nutrient-poor diets, leading to the linkage between poverty, obesity and its associated health problems. Furthermor…

  • The effects of grades on course enjoyment

    Open AccessRichard Remedios, David A Lieberman et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Educational…2000Cited by: 5

    Background. Students tend to rate university courses more positively if they do well. Greenwald and Gillmore (1997a) suggested that it is not students' absolute grades that are important but rather how these grades compare to their expectations. However, this hypothesis is difficult to evaluate because few studies have measured grade expectations at the beginning of courses. Aim. By measuring students' grade expectations and enjoyment at several …
