TU Delft presents the nine Best Climate Action & Energy Papers

Increasingly extreme weather conditions and a steadily rising sea level are unmistakable signs of the deepening climate crisis. Climate action and an accelerated energy transition can make a difference, with a crucial role for technology and engineering - and thereby for the thousands of students, PhDs, and postdocs of TU Delft. Nine of them are in the running for Best Climate Action & Energy Paper, with the winners being announced on Tuesday, 19 March. Climate action. Climate change is escalating. But at what rate, and how can we limit its impact? For one, smartly combining satellite data allows for a more accurate prediction of sea level rise due to Antarctic melting (Climate Science). And adding biochar to the top layer of landfills can reduce methane emissions - a very potent greenhouse gas (Climate Mitigation).
