Fackanslutna arbetare bryr sig inte bara mer om sin arbetsmiljö – utan mer om miljön i stort, visar en ny rapport från Arena Idé. Nu siktar facken, civilsamhället och forskningen mot samma mål – att göra klimatpolitiken ”folklig”. www.flamman.se/facken-vill-...

Just got an academic paper published in the esteemed British Journal of Industrial Relations. I critically assess the influential hypothesis of a neoliberal trend in IR systems, and find that it is not convincing in the Swedish case. Open source! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Call me sour, but EVERY mention of this "victory" should acknowledge that it's funded entirely by the profits of ongoing fossil-fuel production. Since the IEA said "no more new oil and gas fields if we are to hit net zero by 2050" in 2021, Norway has issued >150 new production licenses.

This research shows that rich countries are responsible for massive deforestation embodied in their consumption. On a per capita basis, Canada is responsible for 15x more deforestation than China, the USA is responsible for 40x more deforestation than India, etc. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
