Do you wonder what a radically abundant university could look like? And how could we get there?

De rigeste forurener mest. Det skal vi tale om, hvis vi vil løse klimakrisen - Altinget En effektiv klimapolitik kræver, at der sættes ind dér, hvor klimaaftrykket er størst – og det er blandt samfundets rigeste, skriver Mads Ejsing.

Den tredje artikel i min kommentarserie om dansk klimapolitik hos @altingetdk.bsky.social er ude her til morgen. Den handler om ulighed og vigtigheden af at tænke den sociale retfærdighed ind i klimapolitikken. 🌱

Den kan frit læses her: www.altinget.dk/klima/artike...

Haha, fair nok. Men hun har i hvert fald opdaget, at spillepladen har ændret sig. Det er der stadig nogen inde i KEFM, der ikke har, skulle jeg hilse at sige. 😉

Klart, det er måske lidt uheldigt formuleret. Min pointe er selvfølgelig, at Inger Støjberg har forstået, at klimapolitk handler om social retfærdighed – men så kommer med det helt forkerte svar på den analyse. ☺️

Den næste artikel i min kommentarserie om klimapolitik hos Altinget.dk er ude i dag: www.altinget.dk/klima/artike...

Skriver om det, som mange af os godt ved. At fortællingen om grøn vækst og 'økologisk modernisering' skaber flere problemer, end den løser. Det er tid til en ny samtale. 🌱

»Det er ikke længere klart, hvad det vil sige at omvælte kapitalismen« Skarp og tilgængelig indføring i nogle af de vigtigste debatter på den intellektuelle venstrefløj i disse år.

Anmelder @madsejsing.bsky.social s bog “Verden er ikke længere den samme” i dag i @atlasmagasin.bsky.social . Hvis du ikke allerede abonnerer, er det en god anledning til at få indblik i det fantastisk kulturmagasin.

The Darker Sides of Life in Academia: A Personal Story Over the past few weeks, I have been posting a lot of happy stories on this platform. I recently published a new book, I had a research article come out, and I am soon starting a new research project ...

Earlier today I wrote a short and personal piece about the struggles of life in academia as an early-career and untenured researcher.

It seems to be resonating with folks over at LinkedIn, so thought I'd share it here as well: www.linkedin.com/pulse/darker... #academicsky

Through the case of a waste site from a chemical company in Denmark, the article shows why toxic pollution is often a tricky problem to solve, even when the environmental consequences might seem obvious. #envhum #geo #ecology

My new book about the climate crisis and theories of new materialism received a very kind review in my favourite Danish newspaper @information.dk today. Happy to see the book is alive and well-received out there. ☺️

They also have a nice little café. Although the prices are... well, it's Copenhagen.

Ps. Feel free to reach out next time you're around if you have room in the calendar. I'm a big fan of your work, and I'm sure my research centre would love to host you for an event. ☺️

In one of my favourite bookstores here in Copenhagen they put my new book about the climate crisis next to @jasonhickel.bsky.social. Not sure if this feeling is imposter syndrome or a sense of accomplishment?

Thanks, Mikkel. I really appreciate it. Would love to hear your thoughts on it when it comes it out. If you're free on December 5, I'm doing a little informal reception in Læderstræde 20 at 5pm. You're more than welcome. ☺️

I have a new book coming out in Danish about the Anthropocene and theories of materialism on December 5. Although it's a tiny little book mostly aimed at students, I'm honestly quite nervous about contributing to the public 'intellectual debate' in Denmark. Tips and good wishes are welcome. 🙏
