Good air quality is vital to human health, agriculture and functioning ecosystems, and air pollution can have a big impact on the climate. SEI carries out pioneering research on the impacts of, and solutions to, air pollution, from household up to global scale.
More than 65% of the world's population are projected to live in cities by 2050, with major implications resource use, energy, water and sanitation, and health and well-being. At the same time urbanization can bring benefits, especially efficiency gains. SEI examines these challenges in the round to advance sustainable urbanization.
Event on 16 November / SEI Tallinn, the City of Tallinn and Baltic Environmental Forum Estonia will hold a conference on transitioning to green governance.
How can we meet the nutritional needs and expectations of a growing world population? And how do we do it without compromising long-term sustainability? SEI research explores the transition to sustainable food and agricultural systems.
Past event / SEI scientists will host a three-day training on WEAP, SEI's flagship water modelling software, on 18, 20 and 22 September 2023. Register today.
Around 2.4 billion people use biomass fuels – wood, charcoal and animal dung – for their domestic energy needs. These are typically burned in inefficient stoves or on open fires, with serious consequences for health and the environment. SEI identifies and designs actions to help households transition to cleaner technologies and energy sources.
Event on 16 November / SEI Tallinn, the City of Tallinn and Baltic Environmental Forum Estonia will hold a conference on transitioning to green governance.
Pollution from human activity threatens both human health and vital ecosystems. SEI looks at issues of air pollution from household up to global levels, for example how pollution links to climate mitigation, urbanization and public health, and the potential role of citizen science in pollution monitoring.
Event on 16 November / SEI Tallinn, the City of Tallinn and Baltic Environmental Forum Estonia will hold a conference on transitioning to green governance.
We assess the impacts of and work to reduce the levels of short-lived climate pollutants – such as soot, methane and ozone – in the atmosphere. These agents affect human health and contribute to global warming.
Past event / We join Burundi in a workshop to address air pollution focusing on immediate and long-term solutions that will benefit individuals, communities, and the nation.
SEI identifies policies and solutions that can support shifts toward clean and efficient transportation systems – which are vital to protect the climate and human health, and for sustainable cities.
Perspective / Three perspectives on how to get to a fair and just transport transition, for people that must use and work in transportation.
