Oil price spikes after strikes on Tehran have revived calls to “drill baby drill” in the North Sea.
But Prof Robert Gross says it’s a “red herring”: UK oil and gas won’t lower bills or improve energy security as prices are set globally and new fields are too small to matter.

Over the week, the summer school will provide participants with the knowledge and skills to scientifically link climate change to health outcomes using advanced methods from environmental epidemiology and climate attribution science 🌍
Attribution science is a branch of climate science, evaluating the extent to which anthropogenic climate change has altered the likelihood and intensity of extreme weather events around the world.
📢 We are very excited to host our next Advanced methods for climate and health attribution Summer School, delivered by @frediotto.bsky.social, @clairbarnes.bsky.social, @gkonstantinoudis.bsky.social & @robbieparks.bsky.social
If you are a postgrad student or researcher, read on to find out more 🧵

Paris shows what’s possible when cities prioritise people over cars 🚲
As Dr Audrey de Nazelle notes, what’s often missing isn’t solutions, it’s courage.
A decade of bike lanes, greener streets & bold leadership has transformed how Parisians move.
What does it take to turn ecology into real-world impact? 🌍
In this episode, Dr Caroline Howe (CEP, VP of the BES) and Niru Dorrian (UN Ocean Decade Ambassador) share their very different journeys to becoming BES Fellows, and a shared passion for turning science into action for conservation 🎧
The authors don't think this tension can be resolved. Instead, they look at ways to tackle it in the wider voluntary standards sector. Read more: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @smithschool.ox.ac.uk @oxfordgeography.bsky.social @granthamicl.bsky.social @oxpolicyengaged.bsky.social

Instead, they encourage moving beyond narrow psychological framings and codesigning research, measures, and policies with people most affected by climate change.

They conclude that the lived experiences of young people are far more complex than terms like eco‑anxiety can capture.
Eco‑anxiety: how do young people relate to the climate crisis?
In @uk.theconversation.com, @drdaniellawatson.bsky.social and Dr Emma Lawrance @climateoxford.bsky.social review evidence on young people’s experiences and awareness of the climate crisis 🧵
However, careful choices about locating land-intensive carbon removal may avoid negative impacts and could even provide biodiversity benefits.
Based on current plans, land-intensive carbon removal strategies would take place in up to 13% of global critical areas for biodiversity.
In @theconversation.com @rubenpruetz.bsky.social, @joerirogelj.bsky.social, Sabine Fuss and Gaurav Ganti write that carbon removal strategies may conflict with biodiversity conservation in many instances: for example, planting trees and energy crops in pristine ecosystems such as savannas.
Large-scale removal of carbon dioxide is necessary to achieve the Paris Agreement, however many strategies land-intensive carbon removal plans threaten biodiversity, new research shows 🧵

🌍 Cutting carbon emissions isn’t enough – we also need carbon removal. But planting trees or energy crops at scale can clash with biodiversity.
Careful planning is key, says Professor @joerirogelj.bsky.social and colleagues. 🌱
