Great friend of Propeller Club Liverpool Mark Ching-Pong Poo needs our help! So come on Propellerists, a chance to add to a significant research study at Liverpool John Moores University (UK). The study delves into risks within container supply chains (CSCs) arising from climate change, cyberattacks, and emerging technologies, including autonomous ships. The primary focus of this study is to comprehensively explore and quantify climate-related risks while developing a rational planning methodology for climate adaptation within CSCs. The insights gained from this research will foster a deeper understanding of climate vulnerabilities and their ramifications for various components of CSCs, such as seaports, inland ports, dry ports, container ships, road systems, and railway networks.

The project 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲 ➡ https://lnkd.in/eXAr_NYh explores how Europe can respond individually and communally to various possible future scenarios characterized by significant disruptions such as wars, upheavals, wildfires, floods, and other global challenges. The focus is on preparedness and resilience at the personal and community levels, considering aspects such as survival skills, deliberative policy competencies, and sustainable lifestyles. It also examines how Europe can be less reliant on external services provided by public and private sectors. This deep dive is part of the "European R&I foresight and public engagement for Horizon Europe" project which aims to help valorise foresight elements from R&I projects of #Horizon2020 and #HorizonEurope by increasing their visibility and the potential uptake of their results in EC R&I policy planning. There will be an exciting workshop on this very topic, and we would like to invite you all to attend: 𝗛𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗭𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗨𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗦 𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗖𝗛 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗣 #𝟴: 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: https://lnkd.in/d_PCtpjG ⏰ November 22nd, 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM (GMT 1) 🎯 RSVP: https://lnkd.in/dssqQ7pB Florian Roth Kezia Barker Enric Bas Leena Sarvaranta Masafumi Nishi Emma Coroler Susanne Giesecke Ullrich Lorenz Susanna Bottaro Kubeczko Klaus Duncan McLaren Albert Norström @Sirkku Juhola Giovanna Giuffrè Jennifer Gidley PhD Erica Bol Tanja Schindler Maciej Krzysztofowicz Valentina Malcotti Laura Galante Donatella Casaburo Nikos Kastrinos Totti Könnölä

In a joint declaration, the European Commission and the UK Government have cemented the UK's participation in the esteemed programmes of Horizon Europe and Copernicus. In order to swiftly enact the necessary legal instruments, both parties are embarking on an exciting shared journey. These instruments will undergo a meticulous process involving the Specialised Committee on Participation in Union Programmes, with the ultimate approval resting in the hands of the Council of the European Union. Horizon Europe, the epitome of European research and innovation, and Copernicus, the ground-breaking Earth observation programme, continue to spearhead scientific advancements. This strategic collaboration ensures that the UK remains an integral part of global efforts to propel innovation, combat climate change, and champion sustainability. This commitment not only reaffirms the dedication to scientific innovation but also underscores the relentless pursuit of navigating the legal intricacies for a brighter and more sustainable future for all.

Dive into our latest infographic summary, which unveils the factors influencing pedestrian walking behaviors in cities. Promoting active travel is essential to achieve sustainability, and I hope these findings will guide policy and further research in this field. A key message for city planners, policymakers, researchers, and developers is this: Humans are integral to the infrastructure. Their perception and interaction with the built environment is as crucial as the environment itself. Such insights are vital for preventing disparities in all areas. For more information, you can access the full paper here (open access): https://lnkd.in/d7QanR3G A massive shout-out to my former PhD student, Dr. Nandita Basu, who spearheaded this paper—marking a grand finale to her doctoral journey. Gratitude extended to Liton Kamruzzaman, Shimul (Md Mazharul) Haque, and Mark King for their invaluable contributions. This research forms an integral part of a more extensive research initiative, focused on mitigating climate risks arising from transportation, which I have continued at TU Delft | Technology, Policy and Management.

POSITIVE LIVING - 'A functional cure and the wider use of statins' by Heather Ellis Read about the exciting new findings from #IAS2023 in the latest Positive Living Magazine article. https://lnkd.in/gt-yF4Y7

As professor at Department of Marine Technology (IMT) - NTNU I am proud that NTNU is taking part in this tremendous important mission of decarbonizating shipping. This is one of the most transformative shifts in transportation since we did go from sailing to steam and then oil fuels. There is no silver bullet in terms of fuel types and energy sources. We are in hurry to take action meeting emissions goals of greenhouse gases. There will be hybrid solutions including batteries, green and blue fuels, wind assisted propulsion using sails, nuclear… New supply chains of fueling must be developed. Norway can play an important role in the transition by producing blue fuels from natural gas with CCS. The cost of energy will increase leading to exciting times for the field of marine technology. Everything is in play again optimizing designs and solutions. This is also the time where new business positions will be taken.

I am happy to share that my first peer-reviewed article has finally been published in the Brown Journal of Philosophy, Politics & Economics (JPPE). This is an article entitled "Cheap Transit Passes as Climate Policy: A Case Study of the 9-Euro-Ticket" that I wrote back in October 2022. In it, I examine the 9-Euro-Ticket's impact on transit ridership and the optimal pricing of a successor ticket based on revenue, ridership, and climate impacts. I also looked at potential mechanisms for recognizing the emissions benefits of greater transit ridership as a revenue stream. Unfortunately, due to delays within JPPE, this piece is just now getting published, after Deutsche Bahn and Verband Deutscher Verkehrsunternehmen (VDV) have already offered the replacement Deutschland Ticket at 49 Euros a month. Nonetheless, I hope that my article adds some consideration to the challenge of how to incentivize mode shift and changes in behavior to address climate change, rather than just hoping for future technology to save us. My article is on pages 97-119. (The full issue can also be found at - Volume V, Issue II: https://lnkd.in/eWy-vgug) #transit #climate #rail

"The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is a major tipping element in the climate system and a future collapse would have severe impacts on the climate in the North Atlantic region. In recent years weakening in circulation has been reported, but assessments by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), based on the Climate Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) model simulations suggest that a full collapse is unlikely within the 21st century. Tipping to an undesired state in the climate is, however, a growing concern with increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. Predictions based on observations rely on detecting early-warning signals, primarily an increase in variance (loss of resilience) and increased autocorrelation (critical slowing down), which have recently been reported for the AMOC. Here we provide statistical significance and data-driven estimators for the time of tipping. We estimate a collapse of the AMOC to occur around mid-century under the current scenario of future emissions."

Looking forward to the discussion and exchanges this week in Washington DC at the 7th EU-US Symposium 🇪🇺🇺🇸on Transport Research entitled Global Pathways to Net Zero: Behavioural, Social and Technological Research and Innovation Strategies for #Transport #Decarbonisation. I will be the rapporteur for the discussion surrounding the topic on #Sustainable and #Resilient Land use and Transportation System Design. It is critical to extend the discussion on decarbonisation to all the elements that affect or interact with transport systems, including the (still) much needed modal shift to public transport and more active travel in cities, accessible and safe urban environments that contribute towards resilient and more #livable places, integrated land use and transport #planning to reduce the need to travel, and others. The event brings together some 50 experts and is hosted by the European Commission and the U.S. Department of Transportation. Organized by the Transportation Research Board in cooperation with Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI), ECTRI, VDI/VDE Innovation Technik GmbH as part of the EU funded #Sympeus project!
