Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research
@tyndallcentre
Celebrating 25 years of providing cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research on climate change. Our evidence informs society’s transition to a sustainable, low-carbon and climate-resilient future.
What keeps politicians from leading on net zero? Lucas Geese (Tyndall Centre) and Susie Wang (Climate Barometer) discuss the evidence on what the the public & politicians think about climate change and climate action. 🔗📹️ Watch the seminar: buff.ly/AVEPvBl #NetZero #CleanEnergy #Decarbonisation
A major new digital mapping project could help safeguard some of the world’s most important and well-known heritage sites, both cultural and natural, from climate risks ⬇️ 🔗 tyndall.ac.uk/news/mapping... #ClimateRisks #Floods #ClimateChange #heritage #ClimateImpacts
🌱 £3.83m programme to help people take climate action and drive behavioural change It targets both climate mitigation (cutting emissions) and adaptation (helping communities respond to climate impacts). See how this could lead to real‑world change across the UK tyndall.ac.uk/news/major-n...
Views on climate change and support for climate action have NOT plummeted 📢 At our recent seminar, Susie Wang talked through findings from Climate Barometer, which tracks and makes sense of UK public and political opinion on climate change. 💻️ Watch the seminar here: tyndall.ac.uk/watch/watch-...
Climate change could push UK rivers to extremes, seeing frequent rapid swings between wet + dry conditions – known as hydroclimatic whiplash 🚨💦 Results reveal growing challenges for communities + water managers trying to plan for flood and drought risk: buff.ly/656g4o2
The elephant-in-the room Q 🐘 Why don't modern societies deeply + rapidly decarbonise? Dr Lucas Geese talks through his environmental politics findings, esp. knowledge gaps on climate urgency among MPs and the public. 💻️ Watch the seminar: tyndall.ac.uk/watch/watch-... #NetZero #Decarbonisation
How can Indigenous knowledge build healthier, more sustainable food systems? 💡 A new review finds culturally grounded, community-led approaches can support healthier, fairer and sustainable food practices, while revitalising traditional knowledge. 🔗 tyndall.ac.uk/news/indigen...

Tomorrow ⬇️💡 Join us for the latest in our online public seminar series: tyndall.ac.uk/events/publi...
THIS WEDNESDAY 📅 Join us for an online public seminar that discusses political and public divides over the pace needed for climate action, amid broader diverging viewpoints. tyndall.ac.uk/events/publi... #ClimateAction #Decarbonisation
🗣️ Registration still open for next week's online public seminar: tyndall.ac.uk/events/publi... Do the public and politicians support deep and rapid decarbonisation? Are views becoming more polarised? And what are barriers to engagement?
Future climate change is expected to sharply raise the cooling needs in UK social housing. Housing design must adapt to cut energy use and protect wellbeing 🏘️ Read why social housing designs need to change ➡️ tyndall.ac.uk/news/uk-soci... #ClimateAdaptation #Heatwaves #Housing #ClimateChange
📢 Amid another UK #heatwave, Tyndall Centre's @geogramblings.com reflects on the debate around schools & extreme heat, in a piece that links climate literacy with child safeguarding and argues for more evidence-based #SchoolAdaptation: buff.ly/3CWnwE6 #ClimateEducation #ExtremeHeat #ClimateAction
