[0:02] In the words of Sir David Attenborough
[0:04] we are facing the man-made disaster of global scale.
[0:16] Climate change, habitat loss, pollution and falling insect numbers
[0:18] threatening the collapse of civilizations
[0:19] and the extinction of much of the
[0:22] natural world. Plastic pollution in every
[0:26] river and ocean contaminate our food and
[0:28] kill hundreds of thousands of sea birds
[0:30] and animals every year. Greenhouse gas
[0:36] emissions are rising in the last 30
[0:39] years we've lost rainforest areas the
[0:41] size of South Africa which are vital for
[0:44] trapping and storing excess carbon. But,
[0:49] it doesn't have to be like this...
[0:55] With the right knowledge we can make a
[0:58] difference. With the right research we
[1:01] can plan another future for our planet
[1:03] and, at Bangor University you can play
[1:06] your part in doing just that. By studying
[1:09] the potential of waves and tides, for
[1:11] offshore renewable energy aboard our
[1:13] university research vessel....
[1:15] By researching honeybee behaviour and
[1:17] habitat restoration techniques at our
[1:19] university farm and reintroducing native
[1:22] species to improve pollination... By using
[1:25] Internet connected devices to guide
[1:27] action on air pollution and emissions,
[1:29] nitrate levels, soil quality and solar
[1:32] energy. That's why I chose to study at
[1:36] School of Ocean Sciences. of Natural
[1:38] Sciences, of Computer Science and
[1:41] Electronic Engineering. At Bangor
[1:44] University in north Wales,
[1:50] discover more about living and learning
[1:53] between the sea and the mountains.
[1:55] Register for our open days today, and go
[1:59] on to make a difference.
Our courses
RESEARCH AREAS
Our academics and students are involved in research projects around the world. Their discoveries are helping shape government policies and changing the very way we think about the most important topics of the day.
Centre for Applied Marine Sciences
The Centre for Applied Marine Sciences (CAMS) works to increase the impact of marine research by linking academic research to real-world applications.
