SUMMARY:Biophilic Bath - The Green City You See
DESCRIPTION:A new exhibition at the Museum of Bath Architecture presents creative visions for engaging with nature in urban areas. Biophilic Bath – The Green City You See\, from 10 July – September\, will feature designs by innovative architects\, engineers\, and designers\, which show future ‘biophilic’ visions of the city. Exhibition entrance is included in the cost of Museum entry. \nBiophilic design is defined as “design which focuses on those aspects of the natural world that have contributed to human health and productivity in the age-old struggle to be fit and survive”. The exhibition will present a variety of radical ideas that intrigue\, delight and energize\, and inspire the future sustainability and climate resilience of the city. \nAlex Sherman\, CEO of BPT\, says: “From 2024 developers in the UK will be required to increase the biodiversity of their sites by 10% under the new biodiversity net gain legislation\, so city greening and sustainability are priorities now – not just in the future. \nJoanna Robinson\, Sustainability and Design Manager at BPT says: “Each of these imaginative site-specific biophilic design responses includes direct or indirect experiences of nature\, incorporates low carbon materials and urban greening and nurtures the love of Bath and its unique landscape setting. We hope that this new exhibition will get people thinking and talking about a new consciousness towards restorative\, habitat-friendly urban design for people and nature.” \nImage: Biophilic Bath submission from Eliza Gray Gardens \nThe Museum of Bath Architecture\, The Countess of Huntingdon’s Chapel\, The Vineyards\, Bath. Open from Wednesday to Saturday\, 10am-4pm\, every week.

SUMMARY:Hedge laying – your chance to learn a traditional skill
DESCRIPTION:The Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) and Transition Bath have partnered to offer two days of learning and hands-on practice with CPRE’s skilled hedge-layer. \nHedge laying is a traditional country skill intended to create a strong\, dense living hedge. By laying a hedge you not only create a living fence\, you also help to encourage new growth\, making it an excellent way of regenerating an old\, overgrown hedge without replacing it. It’s a skill that is best learnt from a craftsperson\, and we offer that chance. You will be working in a group of volunteers led by CPRE’s hedge-layer\, gaining real work practice on one of the Nuttery’s overgrown hedges. \nSpaces are limited and must be attended if we are to maximise our time with our hedge expert so please be certain that you can make the appointment before booking. Please include a contact number so that we can keep you up-to-date on what is required for the day. \nWe will be outside for most of the day\, so please dress accordingly and bring a stout packed lunch and plenty of water. Sustaining cakes will be provided!

SUMMARY:Air Pollution and Environmental Justice lecture
DESCRIPTION:Substantial differences exist in both concentrations of outdoor air pollutants and the distribution of emission sources across the UK. How these differences are experienced by individuals\, however\, is unclear. \nSome studies show that lower socioeconomic households\, certain minority ethnicity groups and particular age groups are more exposed to emissions sources and higher air pollution concentrations. These groups may also have elevated exposure related to modes of travel and occupation. Factors affecting disparities associated with indoor air pollution\, including from damp and mould\, cooking\, cleaning\, smoking and heating are also complex. \nThe concept of “environmental justice” is used to assess differential effects of interventions and policy in the United States\, but it is not widely researched or applied in the UK. However\, the UK’s many comprehensive\, open-access government datasets provide opportunities for such differential effects to be further assessed. This lecture will explore how such research can help inform policy decisions. \nThis talk is jointly organised with the Royal Geographical Society. \nProfessor Jo Barnes is Director of the Air Quality Management Resource Centre\, University of the West of England\, Bristol. She has almost 20 years’ research experience in air quality management\, policy and practice at local\, national\, European and international levels. She has worked with and on behalf of numerous local authorities\, Defra and the Devolved Administrations of Scotland\, Wales\, Northern Ireland and Greater London\, other Member States\, the EEA and the European Commission to implement and develop air quality management policies and practices.

SUMMARY:Webinar for owners and occupiers interested in retrofitting listed buildings
DESCRIPTION:Owners and occupiers of listed buildings are invited to attend a two-hour webinar that will help them to understand how they can save energy while also conserving their property. \nThe webinar on Monday 11 November is being organised by the grant-funded Green Heritage Homes project\, a collaboration between Bath & North East Somerset Council\, Bath & West Community Energy (BWCE)\, Bath Preservation Trust\, the Centre for Sustainable Energy and People Powered Retrofit\, which aims to improve understanding of energy efficiency works to listed buildings. \nThe event will feature talks from several of the partner organisations: Bath & North East Somerset Planning & Conservation team will talk about applying for Listed Building Consent; BWCE will be outlining the retrofit services it offers to help owners and occupiers; and Bath Preservation Trust will be discussing how the historic significance of a building is assessed when considering energy measures. \nThe webinar is a repeat of one held in May\, which was attended by more than 80 people. \nCouncillor Sarah Warren\, Deputy Council Leader and Cabinet Member for Climate Emergency and Sustainable Travel at Bath & North East Somerset Council\, said: “The webinar will help homeowners and occupiers of listed buildings to understand how they improve the energy efficiency of their homes while conserving their property. Every individual action taken also helps to support our ambition to be carbon neutral by 2030.” \nAs part of the Green Heritage Homes project\, the council recently launched a Level 0 pre-application advice service that allows owners and occupiers of listed buildings to discuss possible measures with a conservation officer at the initial stages of a potential retrofit project. \nThe Energy Efficient Listed Buildings webinar will be held on MS Teams on Monday 11 November\, 9.30am to 12.00pm. You can sign up for the free event using this link. \nThe Green Heritage Homes project is funded with £344\,308 from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero\, working with the South West Net Zero Hub through the government’s Local Energy Advice Demonstrator Programme (LEAD). Service Level 0 pre-applications will be part of the Green Heritage Homes project until the end of March 2025. \nMore information about Green Heritage Homes can be found on the BWCE website \nThe Service Level 0 pre-application is exclusive to listed buildings (Grade II\, II* and I). Interested homeowners can apply on the council website\, or contact the conservation officer alexandra_best@bathnes.gov.uk to find out more. \nSign up now

DESCRIPTION:The 29th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29)\, will take place in Baku\, Azerbaijan\, from 11 to 22 November 2024. With global temperatures hitting record highs\, and extreme weather events affecting people around the globe\, COP29 will bring together leaders from governments\, business and civil society to find solutions to the defining issue of our time. A key focus of COP29 will be on finance\, as trillions of dollars will be required for countries to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions and protect lives and livelihoods from the worsening impacts of climate change. \nCOP29 will be a key moment for countries to present their updated national climate action plans under the Paris agreement\, which are due by early 2025. If done right\, these plans will limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels and double as investment plans advancing the Sustainable Development Goals. But what if it fails to secure an agreement that will secure these goals? This BRLSI event brings together a panel of local & national experts on climate change and the sustainability transition – questions welcome! \nThe panel will include Penny Tranter\, former BBC weather forecast presenter and Met Office advisor; Theresa Löber\, Head of Climate Project Team at the Bank of England; Stuart Reynolds\, Emeritus Professor of Biology at the University of Bath; James Spincer\, postgraduate student of Climate\, Policy and Politics at the University of Birmingham; and will be chaired by Chad Staddon\, Professor of Resource Economics and Policy at in the University of the West of England (UWE). \nThis meeting has been co-organised with the Royal Geographical Society and the Royal Meteorological Society.

SUMMARY:Green Screen: Food for Profit + Panel
DESCRIPTION:Food For Profit is the first feature documentary that exposes the links between the meat industry\, lobbying\, and the corridors of power. A five-year investigation that denounced how Europe is transferring hundreds of billions of taxpayers’ money into the hands of intensive farms\, which mistreat animals\, pollute the environment\, and pose a potential danger for future pandemics. \nDirectors Giulia Innocenzi and Pablo D’Ambrosi\, along with their team of investigators\, take us on an enlightening but shocking journey across Europe\, where they confront farmers\, corporations\, and politicians. Travelling across Europe\, they infiltrate farms across Europe\, exposing the truth behind the perceived excellence of European dairy and meat production whilst also infiltrating high level powers in Brussels and gaining shocking information. \nGreen Screen is a community-led space to discuss the environmental issues raised in the films we show. Everyone is invited to continue the conversation after the film in the cinema’s bar or cafe – enjoy a free tea or filter coffee when you bring a keep cup! \n\nGet your tickets here.

SUMMARY:Aviation Decarbonisation: Issues\, Challenges and Actions for Change
DESCRIPTION:I-SEE Sustainable Energy & the Environment Webinar \nAviation Decarbonisation: Issues\, Challenges and Actions for Change \nAndrew Chadwick\, Ecosystem Director Air Mobility & Airports\, Connected Places Catapult \nGlobal CO2 emissions from aviation have quadrupled since the 1960s and aviation accounts for 2.5% of global emissions\, not counting non-CO2 effects. If the sector does not act now to address this it is forecast that aviation will\, by 2050\, account for almost 40% of global emissions. \nThis presentation will present the case for why we need to decarbonise aviation now\, how can this be achieved\, the policies to support it\, and what it means in practice. \nIt will also provide examples of current initiatives\, plus provide an overview of the work that Connected Places Catapult are delivering on zero emission airports and fuel infrastructure to address these. \nAndrew Chadwick is a Chartered Engineer and is the Ecosystem Director Air Mobility & Airports at the Connected Places Catapult. Andrew leads on Future Air Transport\, Advanced Air Mobility\, and Aviation Sustainability innovation initiatives. His work includes Solution Architect on a wide number of Future Flight Challenge air mobility and aviation sustainability projects\, the UK Government Drone Pathfinder Catalyst Programme\, plus Designer and Solution Architect of the Zero Emission Flight Infrastructure project studying the introduction and transition of hydrogen and electric aircraft and supporting infrastructure into airports and airfields. \nAndrew is a Member of the Jet Zero Council Zero Emission Flight Infrastructure Subgroup\, a Member of the UK Government Future of Flight Industry Group\, Member of the Industry Advisory Boards for the Autonomous Vehicle Systems and Dynamics MSc and Applied AI MSc at Cranfield University\, a member of the Royal Academy of Engineering Working Group on the Safety and Ethics of Autonomous Systems\, a member of the UK Government Drones Industry Action Group\, and a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society Remotely Piloted Aircraft & Autonomous Systems Specialist Group Committee.

SUMMARY:Antimicrobial Resistance and the Environment
DESCRIPTION:Antimicrobial resistance poses a growing threat to public health and ecosystems. Environmental factors\, including agricultural runoff\, wastewater discharge\, and pharmaceutical pollution\, facilitate the spread of resistant microbes. \nThere is also evidence that natural reservoirs\, such as soil and water\, can act as hotspots for the emergence of new resistant strains through the exchange of resistance genes. \nThis talk will discuss the current evidence from genomics studies\, the key role of mobile genetic elements\, and the rising threat from drug resistant fungi. \nProfessor Edward Feil\, Department of Life Sciences\, University of Bath \nBook tickets here:

SUMMARY:Global food philosophy with Dr Julian Baggini
DESCRIPTION:The global food system is incredibly complex and in crisis. In his new book\, How the World Eats\, Julian Baggini argues that we can use philosophical tools to identify the key principles that should govern a food system fit for the 21st century and beyond\, drawing on the empirical base of how humans have fed themselves across the globe and history. \nThis involves considerations of agriculture\, ecology\, animal welfare\, human rights\, nutrition and political economy. Philosophically\, these require considerations of the limits of reductionism\, the conception of justice\, ethics and epistemology. Although the book is wide-ranging\, Julian will also argue against the idea that we always have to trade-off depth and breadth\, making the case that what we call “breadth” is just another kind of depth. \nDr Julian Baggini is the author\, co-author or editor of over 20 books including The Sunday Times bestsellers The Pig that Wants to be Eatenand How The World Thinks\, and\, most recently\, How to Think Like a Philosopher (all Granta). He was the founding editor of The Philosophers’ Magazine and has written for numerous newspapers and magazines\, as well as for the think tanks The Institute of Public Policy Research\, Demos and Counterpoint. \nTickets: £3-£6.

SUMMARY:How we sold our future: The failure to fight climate change
DESCRIPTION:For decades we have known about the dangers of global warming. Nevertheless\, greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase. How can we explain our failure to take the necessary measures to stop climate change? Why are societies\, despite the mounting threat to ourselves and our children\, so reluctant to take action? \nJens Beckert\, Director at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies and author of How We Sold Our Future: The Failure to Fight Climate Change\, joins the Institute for Policy Research to discuss the answers to these questions. \nDrawing on social science research\, he argues that climate change is an inevitable product of the structures of capitalist modernity which have been developing for the past 500 years. Our institutional and cultural arrangements are operating at the cost of destroying the natural environment and attempts to address global warming are almost inevitably bound to fail. Temperatures will continue to rise\, and social and political conflicts will intensify. The tragic truth is we are selling our future for the next quarterly figures\, the upcoming election results\, and today’s pleasure. \nOnline and free to attend. \nBook a place here.
