Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030 (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Fogg-Rogers, L., Richardson, D., Bakthavatchaalam, V., Yeomans, L., Algosaibi, N., Lamere, M., & Fowles-Sweet, W. (2021, June). Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030. Paper presented at Le développement durable dans la formation et les activités d’ingénieur, Online, France

The environmental and health impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss are now apparent and yet cohesive policymaking to mitigate emissions is moving too slowly. The UK's target for carbon neutrality has been set for 2050, but this has been sup... Read More about Educating engineers to contribute to a regional goal of net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

Catch 22 - improving visibility of women in science and engineering for both recruitment and retention (2021)
Presentation / Conference
Fogg Rogers, L., & Hobbs, L. (2021, May). Catch 22 - improving visibility of women in science and engineering for both recruitment and retention. Presented at PCST 2020+1, Online

There is a significant under-representation of women in STEM which is damaging societal progress for democratic, utilitarian, and equity reasons. However, changing stereotypes in STEM requires a solution denied by the problem – more visible female ro...

Applying social learning to climate communications- visualising 'people like me' in air pollution and climate change data (2021)
Journal Article
Fogg-Rogers, L., Hayes, E., Vanherle, K., Pápics, P. I., Chatterton, T., Barnes, J., …Longhurst, J. (2021). Applying social learning to climate communications- visualising 'people like me' in air pollution and climate change data. Sustainability, 13(6), Article 3406. https://doi.org/10.3390/su13063406

Technological approaches to carbon emission and air pollution data modelling consider where the issues are located and what is creating emissions. This paper argues that more focus should be paid to people-the drivers of vehicles or households burnin...
