One of the many highlights of the @ECORISC_CDT conference was the four short films from the World Water Film Festival. Thanks so much to Robert Strand (@rstrandini) and Milin Patel (@MilinonWater) for facilitating access to the films

I am in Birmingham today and tomorrow participating in the @ECORISC_CDT Conference.

[Alistair Boxall @AlistairBoxall]

We have had a fantastic first day of the @ECORISC_CDT conference. The presentations were great and we had two excellent interactive sessions. A highlight was @AngelCeballoos leading discussions with the aid of his trusty sword.

Day 1 of the @ECORISC_CDT conference ended with a water tasting activity led by @MilinonWater. Yorkshire tap water did particularly well.

A fantastic second day of the @ECORISC_CDT conference. There were some great talks on rethinking environmental risk and a fun interactive living wall activity.

The @ECORISC_CDT meeting concluded with a group photo of the first cohort of students who, over the next few months, will be finishing their PhDs. They have all done some fantastic and impactful work in the last 4 years.

An excellent piece by Phoebe Weston in the Guardian today covering some of our initial findings from the @NERCscience ECOMIX project on chemical mixtures in Yorkshire's rivers. https://t.co/5K6cPz566d

[Science & Technology at Lancaster @LancsUniSciTech]

@imogenrbailes, Lucy Hart, Ola Dosunmu – all PhD students based @LancsUniLec – collaborated with PhD students at other institutions associated with the ECORISC CDT to submit evidence as a part of a parliamentary inquiry into the human impact on the environment in Antarctica.
