This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Reaching the 1.5°C climate target requires a drastic decline in the use of fossil fuels, especially coal in Asia and OECD. Has such decline ever happed in the past? At the first glance, the answer is ‘no’. Globally, new energy and technologies have always been added on top of the old ones (so that past ‘energy transit

Alltför ofta glöms kommunerna centrala roll bort i klimatdebatten. Det är på den lokala nivån många viktiga beslut fattas med direkt påverkan på medborgare, civilsamhälle och näringslivets klimatarbete. Lunds kommun har inom ramen för Miljömålsprogrammet LundaEko satt upp ambitiösa klimatmål. Parallellt har kommunen skrivit under ett klimatkontrakt där den åtar sig att bli klimatneutral till 2030.

Degrowth is a critique of infinite economic growth, recognising continued consumption of scarce resources will inevitably result in exhausting them completely. In this episode, we present the challenges of living within an economic system governed by infinite growth on a planet with finite resources. We discuss key vocabulary to understand degrowth, and its three goals: 1) Reduce environmental imp

When scooters replace travels with car or taxi they contribute to a reduced climate impact. But if they replace walking and biking they will have a bigger impact. Thus the climate impact of scooters depends on how they are being used. New debate article in Sydsvenskan by PhD students Ana Maria Arbalaez Velez and Frans Libertson.

There is a fast-growing trend to design smart electronics with custom-sized batteries that are embedded into devices with glue and solder. As a result, repairing, reusing, repurposing, and recycling batteries and the devices they power has become increasingly difficult and sometimes simply impossible. The EU battery regulation can address these issues and improve how we produce and consume batteri

Frans Libertson, doctoral student at the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics, has published a new report on user perspectives on smart charging. Electric vehicles will play a significant role in decarbonizing the transport sector. However, if not coordinated, the increase in electricity use threatens to overload the energy system.

År 2015 brändes 74 000 ton textilier i Sverige (både hemtextilier och kläder) och bara 3 000 ton återanvändes genom andrahandsförsäljning. Trots att Naturvårdsverket har uppskattat att 60 procent av de textilier som bränns är i tillräckligt bra skick för att kunna återanvändas. Därför måste vi minska CO2-utsläpp genom att tillfredsställa behovet av inredning på ett sätt som inte kräver nyproduktio

In a new article Madeleine Wahlund and Jenny Palm have reviewed earlier research on citizen participation and energy citizenship. The concepts are tightly connected to the debate on energy transition, and the need for a decentralized energy system, based on renewable energy and increased local energy ownership. The two concepts exist in parallel and are sometimes used as synonyms and sometimes wit
