Our continued survival depends in part on our relationship with soil 🌱 But what can literature tell us about this complex relationship? Our Grantham Scholar, Meg Meredith, wrote this insightful @ConversationUK article about the novels that highlight the importance of soil. 📚

“A low risk [of really extreme warming] is not no risk. That risk exists. If that risk is so severe it’s going to be catastrophic or existential, policy makers need to be prepared.” One of the quotes from me in this excellent piece from @RTakver discussing the impact of #COP29.

This year we sent delegates from @sheffielduni to @COP29_AZ so they can witness global climate policy being made.🌍 But with #COP29 set to end in disappointment, is it time to rethink the whole COP process? This is a fascinating thread by @nowthenmag 🧵
Now Then Magazine@nowthenmag

These are some of the delegates from @SheffieldUni who are attending the #COP29 climate summit in Azerbaijan, which closes today. But how useful really is COP, and does it have any effect on people's lives here in South Yorkshire? A quick thread 🧵⬇️

Could #COP29 be the greatest failure in COP history? Our delegate, Kathryn, is sharing her insights from @COP29_AZ.
Kathryn@kathryn_schoon_

At #COP29 in Baku. Today the mood is despondent. People are calling it the greatest fail of any COP yet. No agreements on an amount to finance to developing countries, and China, UAE and Singapore still not classed at developed and to give money.
