A new study from the Centre for Low Carbon Futures shows that UK cities could cut their energy bills by billions by exploiting commercially attractive opportunities in energy and carbon management.
Climate change will increase the amount of electricity generated by solar power in some parts of the world while decreasing it in others.
Better forecasting of violent storms, such as those battering the British Isles over the past few weeks, could be possible in the future.
Investing 2% of a modern city's GDP in low carbon and energy efficient opportunities for ten years would reduce that city's carbon emission levels by 40% at no net cost.
Was it humans or climate change that caused the extinctions of the iconic Ice Age mammals (megafauna) such as the woolly rhinoceros and woolly mammoth?
New study suggests major roads significantly reduce bat numbers, activity and diversity - raising serious issues for how road construction projects mitigate their impact on these protected species.
Studies of ant populations in Borneo reveal an unexpected resilience to areas of rainforest degraded by repeated intensive logging.
City centres could become virtually car-free over the next 20 years under new plans proposed by University of Leeds transport researchers.
The University of Leeds is leading a £13m European project which aims to turn even the most committed of petrol heads into a green driver.
New research from the University shows that past trends in climate must be very carefully understood before using them to model the future.
