Yesterday, Gary Banta Head of the Department of Biology attended the annual Climate Neutrality Conference in SDU Sønderborg.
Gary presented some work from Department of Biology's researchers work with aquatic nature-based solutions together with ARCADIA and the Aqua-NbS elite center at SDU Climate Cluster. He presented some of the latest outcomes from ARCADIA project from SDU, Odense Kommune and the Wageningen University developed with the scientific support of Sara Egemose, Paula Canal Vergés, Marie Helledie Olsen, Sara Gentilini, Haley Kujawa and Gary Overvad Frederiksberg from here at the Biology Department at SDU. The main message was about the multiple benefits, but also tradeoffs and considerations in the use of aquatic NbS.
Among the highlights was a panel debate with Sebastian H. Mernild and and others about the status of climate and needed societal change.
Fieldtrip to Vollsmose
23.08.2024
On Wednesday, the ARCADIA project group was on a tour of the green Vollsmose, which has been selected to be the area for the region's first Co-innovation laboratory as a part of ARCADIA.
It was an exciting trip that gave both an insight into the plans for the area and ideas for working with nature-based solutions and blue-green infrastructures – and which of course sent people into the water after tests.
