44 tweets including from MPs linking to joint chronicle on petroleum research

There was some activity on Twitter in response to our joint chronicle "Forskning for klimavennlig omstilling" [Research for climate-friendly restructuring], published in the online magazine Energi og Klima. As of today there seems to be 44 tweets linking to the chronicle as published there. This includes supportive tweets from two members of parliament, Rasmus Hansson (the Green Party of Norway, MDG) and Alf Holmelid (the Socialist Left Party, SV), as well as Beate Sjåfjell, head of Concerned Scientists Norway (where I am a member).

Twitter update

I've updated profile info and image(s) for my Twitter alias, @sporfilosofen.

To date I've posted 1,032 tweets, and have 236 followers. Not so much. Mostly tweeting in Norwegian, occasionally in English. But not really tweeting much at all lately (the summer of 2011 was an exception, due to the terror in Norway).

Chronicle on petroleum research linked to by student NGO, tweeted about by environmental NGOs and research ethics committees

My chronicle  "Hva slags forskning er etisk forsvarlig?" [What kind(s) of research is ethically justifiable?], which was published earlier this week, was linked to by www.student.no, the webpage of Norsk studentorganisasjon [Norwegian student organization], in their "NSO i media" [NSO in the media] section. They included the full text, and the chronicle in facsimile (see here).

The publication of the chronicle was further tweeted about by half a dozen people, including representatives of the NGOs Concerned Scientists Norway and Framtiden i Våre Hender [The future in our hands], plus by the National Committies for Research Ethics in Norway.
