  • Data-driven recommendations for enhancing real-time natural hazard warnings

    Open AccessKate Saunders, Kate R Saunders et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2025

    The effectiveness of natural hazard warnings relies on transforming the available data into actionable knowledge for the public.Real-time warning communication and emergency response therefore need to be evaluated from a data-driven perspective.However, gaps exist between established data science best practices and their application in supporting natural hazard warnings.This perspective reviews existing data-driven approaches, highlighting limita…

  • Vulnerability of blue foods to human-induced environmental change

    Open AccessLing Cao, Benjamin S Halpern et al.ARTICLENature Sustainability2023Cited by: 1References: 2

    Global aquatic or ‘blue’ foods, essential to over 3.2 billion people, face challenges of maintaining supply in a changing environment while adhering to safety and sustainability standards. Despite the growing concerns over their environmental impacts, limited attention has been paid to how blue food production is influenced by anthropogenic environmental changes. Here we assess the vulnerability of global blue food systems to predominant environm…

  • The overlooked importance of food disadoption for the environmental sustainability of new foods

    Open AccessRichard S Cottrell, Jason Maier et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    With human food production a major driver of global environmental change, there is increasing recognition of the importance of shifting towards more sustainable dietary patterns. With wholesale dietary change notoriously difficult to implement at scale, various new food analogues have emerged to serve as qualitatively similar (e.g. taste, texture) but lower environmental impact alternatives for existing foods, particularly animal protein. While n…

  • Historical food consumption declines and the role of alternative foods

    Open AccessDanielle M Ferraro, Richard S Cottrell et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    The adoption of sustainable alternative foods could potentially reduce the environmental burden of human food production if it can reduce demand for products with higher environmental impact. However, there is little empirical evidence for how frequent food consumption declines are when alternative foods are introduced, limiting our knowledge of the potential for such introductions to drive food system transformations. Using 53 years of food supp…

  • Integrating Life Cycle and Impact Assessments to Map Food's Cumulative Environmental Footprint

    Open AccessCaitlin D Kuempel, Melanie Frazier et al.ARTICLEOne Earth2020

    Feeding a growing, increasingly affluent population while limiting environmental pressures of food production is a central challenge for society. Understanding the location and magnitude of food production is key to addressing this challenge because pressures vary substantially across food production types. Applying data and models from life cycle assessment with the methodologies for mapping cumulative environmental impacts of human activities (…

  • Climate impacts on the ocean are making the Sustainable Development Goals a moving target travelling away from us

    Open AccessGerald Singh, Nathalie Hilmi et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2019

    Climate change is impacting marine ecosystems and their goods and services in diverse ways, which can directly hinder our ability to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), set out under the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Through expert elicitation and a literature review, we find that most climate change effects have a wide variety of negative consequences across marine ecosystem services, though most studies have highlighted…

  • Fostering changes in attitude, knowledge and behavior

    Tina Braun, Richard S Cottrell et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Education Research2017Cited by: 15References: 13

    This study employs a uniquely multi-factorial, large-scale design to investigate baseline differences and the effects of a singular outdoor educational program on environmental attitudes, knowledge and behavior among primary and secondary school students educated in four different countries. Statistical modelling approaches employed country of residence, age, nationality, sampling year, gender and urban/ rural habitation as predictor variables. B…
