This study systematically reviews how EU countries determine electricity reliability standards using the Value of Lost Load and Cost of New Entry metrics. It highlights major inconsistencies in national approaches and calls for more harmonised, transparent frameworks to ensure secure, cost-efficient, and climate-aligned energy transitions across Europe.

To help companies strengthen competitiveness and resilience, the UN Global Compact Network UK, in collaboration with University College London, Newcastle University, and Euromonitor International, has developed the report “Trailblazers & Transformers: UK Business Sectors Redefining Sustainability,” examining how six high-impact sectors in the UK are performing against the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).  Drawing on rigorous data and market insights, the report identifies sector-specific challenges, benchmarks performance, and presents actionable recommenda

This perspective explores nature-based solutions that can be adopted to mitigate and adapt to soil salinization, along with their challenges and implementation limitations

Drawing inspiration from recent European Union agricultural and environmental policy reforms, this study examines the barriers between scientific advancements, farm-scale applications, and the implementation of agricultural policies.

This study demonstrates the effectiveness of insect chitosan compared to the commercial polymer in preserving and enhancing some physicochemical parameters and nutraceutical properties of strawberries, prlonging their post-harvest quality.

This study evaluated Universal Free School Meal (UFSM) schemes for 4-11-year-olds in four high-poverty London areas over six years, with longer-term data for two schemes.

The study evaluated the effects of a personalized dietary strategy based on individualized foods and digital tools on the overall health status and quality of life in older adults with overweight or obesity. The precision approach demonstrated significantly better outcomes compared to standard recommendations, including improvements in body weight, body composition, metabolic health, and quality of life.

The study explores democratisation processes that aim to increase popular control over the production of urban food environments. Based on a case study of East-Central London and using assemblage thinking as an analytical framework, this article explores how more democratic food environments are being (dis)assembled. Our findings highlight the complexity of (dis)assembling practices, which are shaping a partial and fragile version of urban (food) democracy, shifting control away from capitalist structures but, at the same time, relying on state's support for co-designing and co-managing democratic food environments.

This article examines the associations between dietary inflammatory potential, antioxidant capacity, Mediterranean diet adherence, and biological age acceleration in a large UK Biobank cohort.

This article provides a narrative review of the relationships between modifiable lifestyle factors and plasma biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The key findings are that better nutrition, more physical activity, and good sleep quality are associated with more favorable plasma AD biomarker profiles, potentially reflecting less cerebral AD pathology.
