Net zero emission pledges by countries and companies are everywhere at the moment. Most of these pledges rely on massive amounts of carbon removal, yet details on how this will transpire remain largely absent. The COP26 agreement suggests that markets will play a central role, but there are significant problems with this approach. Carbon removal, also known as “negative emissions”, is the process

Offshore wind power is presented as one of the solutions to solve the energy crisis in southern Sweden. But the issue has been met with a "not in my backyard” attitude, as many municipalities say no to the government's decision. LUCSUS researcher Henner Busch, shares his thoughts on how to involve local communities and create a more just energy transition. Earlier this autumn, the Swedish governme
