Local authorities are stepping into a bigger role when it comes to shaping the future energy system. Regional Energy Strategic Planning (RESP) is becoming increasingly important. But it’s only one piece of the puzzle. Local decarbonisation planning isn’t just about feeding into RESP.

Prof. Julian Allwood (2018), Dudley Robinson Professorial Fellow in #Engineering at Catz, has teamed up with theologian Prof. Andrew Davison on 'Promise the Earth' (2026, Cambridge University Press), a new book that calls for a rethink on how we can reduce our emissions:

Promise the Earth: why real climate action means restraint

A new book by a St Catharine's engineer and an Oxford theologian argues that our faith in technology to solve the climate crisis is distracting us from the uncomfortable truth: that saving the planet is neither a task for future technologies nor for world leaders alone. It is something all of us — especially those with comfortable lives — can and must do, now.
