Martin Moström from Retail House shares insights on the necessity for the retail sector to embrace change. Contrary to rumours, the physical store is far from obsolete; it has consistently evolved. Over the past two decades in the grocery trade, store numbers in Sweden have decreased from over 3,000 to around 1,000. This transformation is a natural part of business, but the challenge lies in how w

One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is time for breeding. By getting the birds to fly a little further north, researchers in Lund, Sweden, and the Netherlands have observed that these birds can give their chicks a better start in life. Globa
