The world's largest growth potential among fossil fuels is attributed to liquefied natural gas (LNG). Due to the important role of the gas price at the U.S. trading point Henry Hub (HH) for U.S. LNG exports to Western Europe, the question arises, how gas flows and gas prices are changing at the beginning of the 2030s in Western Europe if the price at HH is higher or lower than expected. Furthermore, the effect on the volumes of U.S. LNG exports to Western Europe is analysed.

AbstractOne Health is an integrative approach at the interface of humans, animals and the environment, which can be implemented as Research-Practice-Collaboration (RPC) for its interdisciplinarity and intersectoral focus on the co-production of knowledge. To exemplify this, the present commentary shows the example of the Forschungskolleg "One Health and Urban Transformation" funded by the Ministry of Culture and Science of the State Government of Nord Rhine Westphalia in Germany. After analysis, the factors identified for a better implementation of RPC for One Health were the ones that allowed for constant communication and the reduction of power asymmetries between practitioners and academics in the co-production of knowledge. In this light, the training of a new generation of scientists at the boundaries of different disciplines that have mediation skills between academia and practice is an important contribution with great implications for societal change that can aid the further development of RPC.
