This week I’m doing zine workshops with college students and it’s so incredibly inspiring. We base the zines on some of the themes developed in my PhD like chemical pollution and the Danish pesticide manufacturer, Cheminova. We’re having an exhibition on Friday in Copenhagen. Come by!

I have given my website a thorough update. You will find some of things I am interested in, like methodology and experimentation, Scandinavian humdrum and post-mining ecology in the arctic. www.sebastianlundsteen.com 📷 is from a recent field visit to the copper mine, Aitik in Northern Sweden.

Anyone knowing when exact(ish) carbon capture and storage stopped being categorized as geoengineering? It seems like it just slipped into being an ordinary feasible technology?

So many things happening during #eseh2025, but for now: 🚨NEW PUBLICATION🚨 In “The pollution-industrial complex and the making of Denmark as an environmental frontrunner, 1965-1975” we explore how environmental regulation became a matter of technology rather than strict (and strictly) regulation.

I am developing a course titled “Anthropocene Histories, History in the Anthropocene” at UCPH. My idea is to structure the it thematically through planetary boundaries. But what are the best texts around these days. I have the obvious stuff: Chakrabarty, Bonneuil & Fressoz, McNeill, Brown

For those selected few who know Danish: I have written an article that synthesizes #envhum #envhis perspectives on pollution for a popular media platform. I use examples from my PhD written @greenhouseuis.net. I warn against seeing pollution as a domain reserved for techno-science and politicians.

What’s happening in the US is starting to feel more like a hacking than an election, with Trump basically cast as the idiot who clicked on the phishing email that let the ransomware guys in. Struck by how crucial tech not politics reporters are to us understanding it

Check it out! I did a review of @danielmacfarlane.bsky.social recent book that explore an area through a large body of water (Lake Ontario). My reading primarily focused on pollution, but if you are interested in US/Canadian history, blue humanities/water history, I bet you will find it interesting.

It’s wild how international media and scholars can get so wrong in understanding Danish green politics. Following the domestic debate, the majority of commentators and NGOs are deeply skeptical by the green tripartite. Basically it’s another case of greenwashing. Apparently it works.
