Congratulations to John Schubert for completing his research as a part of HDR’s Fellowship Program. John worked on a concept to remove and eliminate PFAS in landfill leachate and industrial wastewater and ran several pilot studies at landfill sites. Those studies have been a success, removing up to 99% of common PFAS, and the concept could be applied on a larger scale soon. Awesome work, John! Another great example of HDR doing great things. Here's more about the project: https://lnkd.in/gVCJfyS7

📝As part of the event, there will be presented three projects (SmartWaterTwin HEProject, TwinSubDyn Project and TwiNSol - CECs) from the field of natural and technological sciences closely related to the field of environmental protection, which will give visitors an insight into what makes a successful scientific project and why they are important for society. 🎙We will talk about our habits and how they affect the environment, whether and in what way we can improve them in order to make sure that a green future awaits us. 👉See you on Monday at the Science Club!

In the #energysector, this is a time of #growth, a time of #transition, #transformation and a time of great #opportunity. Thanks to an outstanding level of collaboration and cooperation between the South Carolina Department of Commerce, our state’s higher educational institutions, including but not limited to Clemson University, South Carolina State University, and University of South Carolina, private sector entities like Duke Energy Corporation and Dominion Energy, and public entities like Savannah River National Laboratory and Santee Cooper, our state is ready for such a time as this. #SCNexus
We’re excited to partner with SC Nexus to make South Carolina the global leader in energy resilience. Through our strategic corporate partnerships, we will continue to elevate the strong foundation of research in this field at Clemson University.

Are you a scientist frustrated by the excess of political fanfare but the lack of any substantive progress on our socio-ecological crises (eg. COP28)? Are you worried by the immense gulf that exists between scientists and political decision-makers? Us too! As a team of young ecologists at the Crowther Lab, ETH Zurich, we are interested in finding ways to amplify the impact of science and scientists to address this environmental crisis. For that purpose, we would like to ask you to fill out this short survey (approximately 5 minutes) if you are currently or have ever been a scientist. Your answers will help to evaluate how scientists’ research pertains to policymaking. If you are interested in being updated on the results of our work, please send an email to [email protected] https://lnkd.in/epfRqCQt

At the Benioff Ocean Science Laboratory, we recognize the deep abuses committed as a result of systemic racism, white privilege, and environmental injustice. We believe in taking concrete steps towards a more equitable and inclusive approach to address the problems facing our oceans and communities. Over the last few years, we have thoughtfully mapped out our commitment to promoting diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) in our field of marine science. We proactively strive to bring the voices, intellect, and talents of people of all colors, backgrounds, and identities into our work to further science and conservation. Therefore, we commit to taking tangible actions to achieve our vision of a more diverse and inclusive organization. Our DEIJ action plan details these commitments and the steps we must take to achieve them. As an organization and as individuals, it is our responsibility to continually grow our understanding and efforts to help create a more just and equitable future. We are sharing our DEIJ action plan with you, our colleagues, partners, and friends, to hold ourselves accountable to this mission and to make it available as a resource for others striving towards a shared vision. The planet’s health relies on all of us working together for the benefit of all. 👥🌎 Check out the seven goals of our action plan below👇 Learn more about our commitments to DEIJ and view our action plan here: https://lnkd.in/g_GmcZdj We acknowledge that the University of California was founded upon exclusions and erasures of many Indigenous peoples, including those on whose lands our offices at UC Santa Barbara are located, the villages and unceded lands of the Chumash people. We affirm the critical role of Indigenous peoples in our collective efforts to restore the health of the ocean and commit to elevating their voices and leadership in marine science and conservation.

We have, in my view, a very interesting PhD opportunity to offer, for the project 'From historic injustices to empowered futures: examining the role of marginalized communities in shaping inclusive and resilient sustainability transitions' - a very interdisciplinary project on the interface of environmental science and cultural studies https://lnkd.in/eJvZWKcs
