Catch up on the latest from our #UBS Hub: “The Future of Tourism: Holidays as Public Luxury” 🏖️ Tourism today is extractive, unequal, and unsustainable. We imagine what it could be instead: a public good, democratically owned and ecologically viable👇

By 2050, climate crisis could push nearly 1 million more people in the UK into poverty through soaring food prices 🚨 We set out the impact of climateflation in the recent research from our #UBS Hub👇 buff.ly/pgYA6ls

Driven by crop failures and supply chain disruption, "climateflation" is poised to drive up food prices in the coming years. Our hidden gem of the week advocates for universal food provision and a public food infrastructure. By Luiz Garcia et al. @autonomy-institute.bsky.social buff.ly/4OmFWRB

With temperatures rising today, Jack Kellam spoke to Aaron Paul on BBC London about our research into the effects of extreme heat on the UK workforce – and the need for a legal maximum temperature 📈 🌡️

With temperatures set to rocket this week, UK workers are still not protected by a legal maximum temperature❗ Our research found that two-thirds of the workforce could find themselves working in heat waves above 35C by the end of the decade 📈 buff.ly/guwmidU 👇

A lot of the food we eat in the UK is imported from overseas and so as a country we're particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change on food production. This is a vital new report from @autonomy-institute.bsky.social!

Introducing the Autonomy Data Unit 📊 Our team focused on combining and refining datasets, producing digital tools for research, and building practical tech for progressive actors 📈

Major hikes in food prices are baked in. What should we do about it? Quick explainer:

UK food prices could rise by 34% due to climate change. #FoodSystem @autonomy-institute.bsky.social www.csofutures.com/news/uk-food...

Under the ever worsening conditions of climate change we can no longer afford the needs of private capital dominating our food systems and we can no longer afford the oligarchs it creates undermining democracy. Great research from @autonomy-institute.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/business/202...

🚨 NEW from our #UBS Hub “On the Horizon: Climate-Induced Inflation and the Price of Food” 📈 Our latest report shows how climate shocks are already driving up food prices — and could push nearly 1 million people into poverty by 2050 Excl. in @theguardian.com: buff.ly/DztJhiC

New in Tribune 🚨 Our modelling shows nearly two-thirds of UK workers could face working temperatures over 35C by 2030, but the Employment Rights Bill says nothing about extreme heat... 🌡️ We need a statutory maximum temperature👇 🖊️Phil Jones & @liammullally.bsky.social
