  • A library of plants – what can we learn about our changing landscape?

    What does the size of a plant genome tell us about its chances of survival? As land use, climate and other anthropogenic changes alter the distribution of plants across the British Isles, can scientists predict future patterns?

  • What’s in the water? Measuring the impact of plastic pollution

    Microplastics are tiny plastics particles created when plastics degrade and escape into the environment, releasing toxic pollutants into our soil and water. Within 30 years, 12bn tonnes of microplastic could have entered the environment.

  • Helping London’s children breathe more easily: how Queen Mary research influenced the introduction of the Ultra Low Emission Zone

    Professor Jonathan Grigg and Professor Chris Griffiths have played a pivotal role in making London’s air healthier for us all – and particularly for our children. Air pollution is the top environmental risk to human health in the UK.

  • Aerosol-treated perovskites – shedding new light on affordable solar energy

    We need to increase renewable energy generation to meet net zero targets and to make energy more affordable. Discover how Joe Briscoe, Reader in Energy Materials and Devices at Queen Mary is researching how solar power generation can be made more efficient.
