The dark side of the Nordic model
Scandinavian countries may top every ranking on human development, but they are a disaster for the environment.
Latin America boasts eight of the ten best-performing countries.
Most high-income countries continue to decline. Norway and Iceland— often mistakenly regarded as sustainability leaders — have declined nearly to the level of the United States.

"...the failure to address the climate crisis is evidence the political and economic system is fundamentally broken and the only logical response is a wartime campaign of resistance"

Varmaste og tørraste mai på lenge: – Vil ha store konsekvensar
Mai månad har vore uvanleg varm og tørr. Det bekymrar klimaforskarar.
Much better than usual example of impacts reporting here
✅ Imagery at least isn't consistently happy scenes
✅ Climate cause is mentioned (+ as core story, not after thought)
✅ Emissions and policies mentioned
❌ Fossil fuels not mentioned
❌ Norway's supply contribution to fossil fuels not mentioned

EquinorOut | The truth about Equinor’s global projects
#EquinorOut is a global movement of people and organisations demanding that the Norwegian oil giant Equinor end all exploration of new oil and gas reserves, and fully commit to a just transition towar...
great, detailed new website on Equinor's impacts outside of Norway. The company is widely seen as a "responsible" fossil fuel company locally but its wrongdoings around the world as it seeks to expand fossil fuel extraction keep racking up

Is climate change accelerating after a record year of heat?
The record-breaking heat of 2023 has seen a rare disagreement break out between climate scientists, with some saying it shows Earth may have entered a new period of warming
Scientific disagreement about whether fossil fuel impacts are extremely bad and just outside the realms of what was projected, or extremely bad and just inside the realms of what was projected...
I think for most people it doesn't change their experience of the consequences of coal, oil and gas

Ny akademiaavtale med Equinor
Universitetet i Oslo har inngått en samarbeidsavtale med Equinor om forskning på klimaendringer og energisystemer, materialteknologi, karbonlagring og rettslige og politiske prosesser i det grønne ski...
Norway is a subsidiary of Equinor not the other way apparently. Since the state own the company and collects the taxes the same money could be transferred via the state ensuring neutrality and academic freedom. Instead they choose petrocracy and oligarchy.

Hvis man bare er motorisert, er de åpenbart tillatt å demonstrere ved å blokkere all trafikk. Men er man ubeskytte klimaaktivister, da er de visst farlige og ulovlige. Dette er sinte, tyske bønder.
