Next week, we’re taking 2 research teams to Westminster to present their evidence on pertinent policy areas: school absenteeism & regional climate action. They are hoping parliamentarians will use their research to inform future policymaking. #EvidenceWeek @senseaboutsci (1/3)

Gov policies affect all our daily lives. Parliament must be able to effectively question the evidence being used to inform them. #EvidenceWeek brings together public, researchers + parliamentarians to discuss how evidence for policies is used and scrutinised at Westminster

Researchers in the Faculty of Environment have collaborated on a new, more inclusive model to understand the key processes in ocean sediments' carbon preservation. The tool and its insights can be used to support climate change mitigation strategies. environment.leeds.ac.uk/news/article/5…
