Technically Speaking | a science and engineering discussionShould cows produce less methane?Methane is a potent greenhouse gas which contributes to the climate emergency. Intensive farming can lead to cows contributing significantly to levels of this gas in the atmosphere. Antonia, Ellie and Jasmin discuss the latest research to reduce the amount of methane cows produce through burps and flatulence. They look at additives to cow feed, using seaweed as an alternative feed, and selectively breeding the cows. They consider whether people should eat less meat and look at cultural and geographical challenges to doing so.
Fact check:
Estimates of greenhouse gas emissions from livestock vary

2024-06-2723 minTechnically Speaking | a science and engineering discussionIs it easy to recover from an apocalypse-style event?Ever wondered what society would look like if we lose our entire infrastructure? Antonia, Jasmin and Ellie discuss how they might survive based on their own science and engineering knowledge combined with inspiration from film and TV. They discuss movies such as Water World, consider where they would look for information if the internet were affected, and examine how global society could be rebuilt in the absence of modern infrastructure that many of us take for granted. It turns out there isn’t a lot of science or engineering to learn from fiction so, perhaps consider this a review of...2024-06-1345 minTechnically Speaking | a science and engineering discussionAre metals vital for modern life?Do you ever think about how technology like your smartphone has improved with time and wonder how science made it happen?

Laura, Antonia and Jasmin discuss whether there is any evidence that their disruptive tactics will convince companies and governments to take more drastic action to curb the climate emergency. They look at why people might join a cause and whether facts or emotion are the most powerful tool an activist can use to persuade.
The team mention a report from the Tyndall Centre for Friends of the Earth which shows that plans for expansion of air travel contradicted targets...2024-05-0228 minTechnically Speaking | a science and engineering discussionTechnical short: Apex predators, asteroids and couch potatoesIn an earlier episode on apex predators we had a bit of a tech fail! Here's a big chunk of speculative conversation from Antonia, Ellie and Jasmin that that follows some sort of weird logic but somehow arrives at a sensible conclusion.

They also discuss the perception of risk and how this can influence the decisions that are made.
2023-01-2632 minTechnically Speaking | a science and engineering discussionIs importing wood for electricity production sustainable?Some power stations in the UK that originally burned coal have switched to burning wood pellets.

Kill RoyalMarie-Antoinette – Gekrönt, verhöhnt, enthauptet
Maria Antonia wird 1755 als eines von 16 Kindern in die berühmt-berüchtigte Habsburger Herrscherfamilie in Wien hineingeboren. Moment mal, wer? Ah, Marie-Antoinette! Eine historische Figur, flankiert von so vielen Gerüchten, dass wir uns nur an falsche Zitate wie das von Brot und Kuchen erinnern. Höchste Zeit, mal ein paar Dinge klarzustellen. Im Schnelldurchlauf: Sie wird mit nur 14 Jahren mit dem französischen Thronfolger Louis XVI verheiratet und ist von nun an Fast-Staatsoberhaupt des Fast-Nachbarlandes. Viel Umbruch, wenig Geborgenheit, verwirrende Hofetikette mit allerlei Verboten für die einst so lebensfrohe Prinzessin und einem öffentlich preisgegebenen Sexleben. Das trifft eher un...2022-09-2250 min
