Congratulations to Hannah Mealy, PhD Student jointly supervised by Dr Paul Leahy in the School of Engineering and Dr Fiona Cawkwell in Geography who recently received the “Best presentation” award in the biodiversity category of the ENVIRON 2023 conference in Donegal. Hannah’s presentation was on her measurements of carbon dioxide and methane fluxes at a revegetated cutaway peatland.

A new piece authored by Dr. Elena Tsalaporta, Process and Chemical Engineering, UCC for RTE Brainstorm, discusses the role Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) will play in meeting Ireland’s climate goals, noting that carbon capture is 1) not a new concept and 2) Is an essential tool to reducing carbon emission from hard to abate sectors
