An interactive beef demonstration at AgriScot this month is set to highlight the herd management and profitability benefits of regularly weighing cattle.

The clock is ticking for people to cast their votes for an innovative community project at Scotland’s Rural College.

The British Geological Survey (BGS) will lead the recently funded ELEGANCY research project that will support the decarbonisation of heating using novel hydrogen-based technology. This project is one of five supported by the UK Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) with co-funding from the EU.

Researchers across Europe have come together to accelerate the development of technologies to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Over the next 3 years, a large project will focus on the removal of CO2 from industrial processes, the conversion of CO2 to create valuable products, such as methanol, and the safe storage of CO2 deep underground.

Key players from Europe, Australia and the USA are joining forces to tackle the challenge of removing CO2 from the atmosphere and storing it underground in a bid to make a real difference to our future climate. The ‘Pressure control and conformance management for safe and efficient CO2 storage’ or ‘Pre-ACT’ project, aims to improve the cost effectiveness of safe CO2 storage.
