Systemic barriers preventing farmer engagement in the agricultural climate transition
Farmers and the agricultural sector are facing an uncertain future, due to rapidly changing agricultural policy and a nexus of commercial, environmental and biodiversity challenges brought on by anthropogenic climate change. Balancing the interests of the farming community and natural environment is generating organisational and personal conflict, rather than effective agricultural adaption and a focus on the net zero transition.

Is the gas industry a good neighbour? A comparison of UK and Australia experiences in terms of procedural fairness and distributive justice
Shale gas governance in the United Kingdom and the United States
Questions abound about the appropriate governance systems to manage the risks of unconventional oil and gas development, and the ability for citizens to engage and participate in those systems. In this paper, we map the development of shale gas governance in the US and UK; we highlight the contrasting systems of land ownership and mineral rights, compare the opportunities that these systems of governance present the general public to participate …
Conceptualizing a social sustainability framework for energy infrastructure decisions
Public consent for the geologic disposal of highly radioactive wastes and spent nuclear fuel
Global agreement exists for the policy of the geological disposal of spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive wastes, provided that there is public consent. To gain consent, social scientists recommend the less competitive approach of consensus rather than the majority rule (MR) of democracies. But, we hypothesize, competition for public consent from MR best improves the quality and stability of choice
