Floating ponds – urban fish farming to transform global food production
Over-fishing, poor management of fish stocks and the impact of a changing climate mean that we must now look increasingly for new ways of satisfying the global demand for fish as a sustainable source of food.

The future of transport looks very different from today
The availability of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs), or driverless cars, in the market is no longer a matter of ‘if’, but ‘when’. Most vehicles today offer partial automation but rapid technological advancement is pushing the fleet towards higher levels of automation. Various literature differ in their projections on the driverless vehicle’s implementation and market-penetration timelines, but most agree that fully autonomous vehicles will be common from the 2030s. Research undertaken for the Victoria Transport Policy Institute (VTPI) predicts that CAVs will become common and affordable in the period 2040 to 2060.
