U of G Researchers share their work and why World Water Day matters
This year’s World Water Day is focused on accelerating change towards Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030. The College of Engineering and Physical Sciences is home to many faculty and researchers with expertise in water and sanitation. They are continually working towards creating water and sanitation solutions that support SDG6 and improve life for all.
Celebrating Women in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences
The College of Engineering and Physical Sciences is proud of women whose passion for STEM, led them to study, research and teach at the U of G.
Carbon-smart soils used to combat climate change
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of the most dominant greenhouse gasses (GHGs) that can absorb and hold heat radiated from the sun. Ever-increasing GHGs emissions have caused a significant rise in atmospheric carbon concentration in recent decades. If this trend continues, the Earth could warm by 2˚C before the end of the century, which will result in severe threats to human life and global ecosystems. Global efforts are being made to mitigate this effect by developing carbon capture and sequester (CCS) technologies.
