Kåkånomics event on the ethics of Norway´s oil fund held, with panel discussion

Today I took part in the Kåkånomics event «Oljefondet og etikken som forsvant» (which translates directly as "The oil fund and the ethics that disappeared"). At the event, which took place at Musikkstuen Påfyll, a pub in the center of Stavanger, an introduction by Cecilie Hellestveit was followed by discussion with me, Espen Henriksen (BI) and Hellestveit, chaired by Helle Stensbak. Some 100 people attended.

Today I have had half a book writing day devoted to my book Carbon Capture and the Future of Environmentalism, which is forthcoming with Bloomsbury Academic.
