Last year, we established Liberate Science’s baseline environmental impact, estimating around 6 000 kilos of carbon dioxide equivalent (or 6 mtCO2e) of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the years 2019 and 2020. For 2021, we calculated 3.29 mtCO2e – a welcome reduction (-48% overall, -30% compared to 2020). In part, this reduction is because of a smaller team and that we didn’t need (or want) to update any of our devices or office furniture.

We want people to know about ResearchEquals, so that they can use it to publish how they know, instead of what they know. Our launch in February 2022 gave ResearchEquals a boost, and now we wanted to try out something new: We dipped our toes into the marketing waters! In this blog I share how to run ads on the Berlin (or Munich) subway.

We launched our own open access publishing platform ResearchEquals.com on February 1st, 2022. Publish how you know, not what you know. Our open access publishing platform for research modules.

With our publishing platform ResearchEquals.com we are introducing a new business model for open access: Pay to close. We love open access - it is a massive part of why we even started building ResearchEquals. We also hear the scholarly community's issues with the business models of open access. As the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Science summarizes: This inequity needs addressing.
