#DearAcademics,
Explaining your topic simply and succinctly is a highly valuable skill.
Overcomplicating abstracts for articles, books, or seminars is not only a form of gate-keeping, it also hurts your overall goal of trying to get people to engage with your ideas by hiding them behind jargon...
Our 3MPlanet Competition Final is coming up!
If you are in or around @uniofstandrews.bsky.social next week, come & check out the final of our annual undergraduate research competition.

Oh, I wasn't worried about feasibility, just the rules of the imaginary universe where this was possible!
Would be be operating on Terminator or Back to the Future rules of time?
How would seeing the future work, though? If it were a set timeline where anything you do would just ironically lead to the future you saw coming true, I might want a different power...

Check out our latest post over on #TheEnergyBlog from one of our MSc students, Zak Gainey.
2024 might be remembered as a landmark year for #NuclearEnergy; as the year which saw big tech companies advance their own private energy initiatives.

If you want an overview of the situation unfolding at Grangemouth oil refinery, listen to this talk @riyokoshibe.bsky.social and I did for @energy-ethics.bsky.social. We discuss our findings from interviews we recorded with workers and their frustration at the looming discarding of their skills.
The PEPtalk series is back!
Join us this Thursday (1 - 2pm GMT) as our expert panel discusses how how energy and climate research can inform and direct policy decisions.

Last year I wrote about Grangemouth's energy history for @energy-ethics.bsky.social. Half a century ago Grangemouth workers were put at the heart of the UK's energy economy - today they are being left behind. energyethics.st-andrews.ac.uk/blog/grangem...
I learned about Grangemouth when I worked on a CEE blog post with Riyoko last year (tinyurl.com/kbyxf46r).
This event will provide a unique view into the front-lines of Scotland's Energy Transition and give a voice to those who we as a society cannot afford to leave behind.
