Is the battle over Lofoten’s oil and gas over? e24.no/energi-og-klim… Politician in Norway’s biggest party (Høyre) wants access to the “sleeping licenses” outside Røst. @philbey2 @GavinBridge9 and I wrote about these in routledge.com/Cold-Water-Oil… @UiTNorgesarktis

What is happening in the energy transition in Svalbard? The short answer is that it is moving forward! My colleague and I are also commenting thebarentsobserver.com/news/svalbard-… @UiTNorgesarktis

Our chapter on #CCS, #CCU, & #CCUS exploring pitfalls of utilisation & storage, led by Oluf Langhelle and co-authored with @sidsareen is now open access: tinyurl.com/2ajuby68 We start with a history of CCS, & then move to CCU and CCUS, outlining key controversies & debates.

Katrine Opheim and Laurien de Korte from @uitnorgesarktis presented the results of their #research in the project @ARCADE_ArcticA at the @_Arctic_Circle. They have developed new #solutions to #social and #environmental #challenges in the Arctic @_Arctic_Circle #ArcticCircle2024

Today researchers from @uitnorgesarktis shared their perspectives at @_Arctic_Circle on why research on #security and #governance in the #Arctic is an important contribution to The international polar year @gosiasmieszek @berichi @ghoogj #ArcticCircle2024 @arctic_five

@berichi and @madalena415 today shed light on #legal and #ecological challenges connected with deep sea #mining in the Arctic. UiT professor Tone Huse also presented her research on Nordic colonialism at @_Arctic_Circle #ArcticCircle2024

Happy faces at our workshop on Arctic security and governance. Perfect warm-up for @_Arctic_Circle Come join our sessions Friday morning and evening! #Assembly2024

Without understanding the problem - we can’t solve it says Hauge x2 in @Bellona_no as they open Center for Marine restoration, set to fight sea urchins to save and repair kelp forests @UiTNorgesarktis is academic partner

Chicago here we come! Excited to have our roundtable accepted at #ISA2025 where we will be discussing Arctic securities in the Anthropocene. Check out this line-up 🤩

My book is becoming more and more real! It's available to pre-order now😱 "Arctic State Identity: Geography, history, and geopolitical relations": manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526153906/… #Arctic #ArcticStateIdentity @ManchesterUP

This is INSANE: Seven Chinese solar companies most people haven’t heard of are ALREADY providing more energy for the global economy than Exxon, Chevron, Shell, BP and the other Seven Sisters who once dominated oil production: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl… via @opinion

Our new @IEA report finds that that clean energy transitions are cheaper than the path we are currently on. How could this be? Surely sticking with fossil fuels is cheaper than buying fancy new kit like EVs and heat pumps…right? Nope. Let’s get into it.

Helhetlig forvaltning: nøkkel til konflikthåndtering? Ny næringsvirksomhet i havet, som havvind og offshore oppdrett, øker potensialet for konflikter. Våre forskere setter søkelys på debatten om #havet i dette leserinnlegget i @NNdebatt nordnorskdebatt.no/et-hav-av-konf…

Trafikken på kraftkablene er forskjellig! Mens kabel til England og Nederland er mest eksport, er Danmark og Tysklandskabel mer balansert, da de har mye sol og vind, og oftere kraftoverskudd. Nå når alle bygger mer fornybart vil det bli stadig mer norsk import.

I'm thrilled to have Brett Christophers speaking at the inaugural @BESI_Berkeley Climate Seminar on March 12—the book's launch date! The topic couldn't be more timely: "The Price Is Wrong: Why Capitalism Won’t Save The Planet." Hybrid over zoom. Join us! besi.berkeley.edu/events/the-pri…

@HavardHaarstad Tror det sitter lengre inne for menn å plage andre menn (som er forskere eller annet), enn det er å ta ut sinne på kvinnelige forskere. Jeg fikk en god demonstrasjon på det selv sist på Twitter/X, for en liten måned siden.

Dette. Jeg forsker på klimaomstilling, og har vært en del i media. Aldri fått en kommentar på meg som person. Aldri. Uenigheter, masse. Noe usaklig. Men aldri på person. Kanskje fordi jeg er mann? khrono.no/utsatt-for-dra…

Leading 🇷🇺 opposition politician Boris Nemtsov was assassinated next to the Kremlin on this day 9 years ago. We in the Barents Observer have named our meeting room after him.

@GeirMunch Polen har tatt imot over dobbelt så mange flyktninger som oss i forhold til folketallet, og har hatt over 10 ganger større utgifter til ukrainske flyktninger i forhold til BNP. Våkn opp til virkeligheten.
