Decarbonize research through funding rules
Increasing pressures to make the academic sector consistent with the climate goals of the Paris Agreement and experiences of new ways of conducting research developed during the current sanitary crisis (e.g., https://lifestyle-changes.org;) have led some ICTA-UAB researchers to write a letter suggesting the establishment of new rules that coordinate the decarbonization of research activities.
We want to submit this letter to an academic journal, but we think that our petition will be stronger if supported by scientists from several disciplines and academic fields. We are thus, requesting you to read this short letter and, if in agreement, sign it by providing the information requested. The letter can be signed until the coming Sunday 24th May.
We will appreciate if you can disseminate the initiative in your networks
