Friday roundup ?️
? WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO: Jacob, one of our researchers, arrived in the Arctic to commence another round of research with Real Ice. The team are working closely with locals in Cambridge Bay, Canada, to investigate how we might protect the sea ice. You can find out more about the ideas at https://buff.ly/3CcvCi5, and check out Real Ice’s ethos on their website, https://buff.ly/4au4t76.
Our director, Dr Shaun Fitzgerald, has also been travelling to northern climate - although it doesn't look *quite* so chilly. He spoke with our friends at SEAO2-CDR in Edinburgh this morning about “Going beyond emissions reduction - climate repair”. You can find out more about our partners SEAO2-CDR on their website: https://seao2-cdr.eu/ (image from Callum Ward on LinkedIn.)
?️ LISTEN: Shaun spoke with BBC Radio Cambridgeshire on Wednesday about a new report by Anglia Ruskin and Cambridge Ahead on how the city can reach its net zero goals. You can read the report here: https://buff.ly/4gYEc3d and listen to Shaun’s segment from 02:14:00: https://buff.ly/4hdUplj
? READ: Laura Wismans from NRC visited us last term to chat about conducting studies in the field and our work with Delft University of Technology. Check it out: https://buff.ly/4fY2FUN
? WHAT WE’RE THINKING ABOUT: we are looking to expand our team of researchers and staff. Our director said: “We are keen to ensure that anyone who has the relevant background and is interested applies. We need a range of backgrounds, skills, and experiences working together to tackle these problems.” Find out more about our opportunities at https://buff.ly/40DADd1.
❄️ COOL STUFF: PNAS published a report on life-saving potential of geoengineering: https://buff.ly/3PDE4Ka.
?️ GET INVOLVED: There is a lot to get involved with in 2025. Starting 30th January, we’ll be hosting four fortnightly seminars introducing Engineering for the Climate. Join us in LR4, Engineering Dept, Cambridge. Spring Seminars: Engineering for the Climate | Centre for Climate Repair.
We’ll also be at Cambridge Science Festival in March! Friday 21st March, 6.30pm - more info to follow.
Abstracts are now being accepted for our conference in June, until 28th February 2025. Find out more and spread the word: https://buff.ly/3CppnaF.
⌛ JOIN THE CONVERSATION: What happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic. Join us in Cambridge from 26th-28th June for an exciting conference on Arctic Repair - solutions for a warming climate. Find out more at https://buff.ly/41xv00T.
? GET IN TOUCH: You can also find us on Bluesky (climaterepair), LinkedIn, and Instagram (climaterepaircambridge), and view this newsletter on our website at https://buff.ly/40ELWSh. As always, you can contact us at info@climaterepair.cam.ac.uk.
