Absolutely delighted to have been awarded best oral presentation at #OXLEAP24 yesterday!
It was fantastic to finally attend the @LEAP_Oxford conference in person and hear about all the brilliant food systems and sustainability research happening in this space 🌱
Thanks @EstherPapies for an inspiring keynote on what behavioural science can deliver to secure human and planetary health at @UKSBM Annual Scientific Meeting 2024👏👏

Why can't academics give up flying?
We identified cultural, individual, and organizational reasons academics think we can't decarbonize research production.
Especially relevant as more conferences & workshops return to offline-only formats.

"The Psychology of Climate Change" students nominated me for a @glasgowunisrc award as Best College Teacher.
This is not about me - it's about the conversations we had, creating a culture of care, and empowering each other to act 💪.
Thank you @UofGPsychNeuro students 🙏💚!!
Looking forward to my keynote for the @UKSBM community about our role in addressing the climate emergency 💫!
Climate change threatens to undo decades of health progress - I'll discuss ways for each of us to help prevent this 💪.

Climate emotions permeate student learning and research activities, but their influence is poorly understood and often ignored in higher education. Our new pub in @NatureClimate shares recommendations for educators supporting students w/ climate emotions.

A better future isn’t a world away. But first the richest and biggest polluters must begin paying for the damages they’ve caused to people’s lives. Join me and take action now #climatejustice. https://t.co/fG17gvkVfC
We finally have a scientific health check for the entire planet! 6 of 9 planetary boundaries currently transgressed. This does not mean irreversible collapse, but we are losing resilience. We are putting the stability of the entire earth system at risk.
Come join the @HealthyCogLab at #Explorathon this Saturday (16th), Sunday (17th) and next Saturday (23rd) in the ARC to talk about all things plant-based! 🥦🥕🍅
We have loads of resources for anyone interested in transitioning towards a more sustainable diet 🌎

@DrNatLawrence @Bryant_Research @Elisa__Becker@GeorgeMonbiot@veganuary@PlantBasedNews@plantbasedhpuk Animal agriculture is an incredibly inefficient way of feeding people. 77% of agricultural land is used for livestock, which provides only 18% of global calories.
To prevent systems collapse, we need to feed people, not animals.
