Publicly-funded research should contribute to society in some way. But we need to think carefully about how we create a system that allows us to measure the impact of research.
By 2030 renewable energy sources such as solar and wind will cost a similar amount to fossils fuels such as coal and gas, thanks to falling technology costs
CSIRO conducted a nationwide survey to quantify the number of Australians avoiding wheat and to ask them why.
We have all the tools to achieve economic growth and environmental sustainability - we just have to choose to use them.
Blue bottles have been washing up on beaches lately, but what exactly are they? And are you really supposed to pee on their stings?
Hate the taste of Brussels sprouts? Do you find coriander disgusting or perceive honey as too sweet? Your genes may be to blame.
The most unequal state in Australia is NSW, while the least unequal state is Tasmania, according to new analysis.
A new study has failed to find evidence of gravitational waves, but that doesn’t mean Einstein was wrong about their existence.
Solar hot water is an excellent way to heat up without adding to your electricity bill. Unfortunately, it seems Australians are not getting the most from their solar hot water systems.
What is it like to be a woman working in the sciences? While there are hurdles to overcome, there are joys as well. The new SAGE initiative hopes to make STEM even more amenable to women.
58 countries have submitted their climate targets ahead of international talks in Paris. We know the numbers, but not all efforts to combat climate change are equal.
US Studies Centre research associate Tom Switzer said on Q&A that US carbon emissions had levelled off because of coal seam gas, but activist Naomi Klein said it was due to the economic downturn. What does the research say?
By 2050, 99% of the world’s seabird species will be accidentally eating plastic, unless we take action to clean up the oceans. And some of the highest risk to wildlife is in the Southern Ocean off Australia.
Diving in many parts of Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia now costs a little more than it used to – but you might be happy to discover why.
The world of the future will have more mouths to feed, but those people are likely to be more discerning too. It adds up to a complex mix of factors for Australian farmers keen to safeguard their prospects.
New estimates show that for more than a decade China’s greenhouse gas emissions have been overestimated by international agencies, while the country’s energy consumption has been underestimated. The research…
Dwarf galaxies are the most abundant galaxies in the universe yet little is known about how they behave, and the impact of larger neighbours.
The seesaw between El Niño and La Niña is set to get stronger with global warming. Signs are that this year and next will deliver a big swing from one to the other, prompting fires and floods across the world.
The Great Southern Reef covers 71,000 square km and contributes more than A$10 billion to Australia’s economy each year.
