Synchronizing climate intervention
As large-scale climate interventions such as solar geoengineering gain traction in formal assessment processes, the role of computer-based models in shaping anticipatory governance remains underexplored. This paper examines how model intercomparison projects serve as infrastructural sites for synchronization, aligning diverse scientific, technical, and political timelines to facilitate expert foresight. Through an analysis of the Geoengineering M…
Expertise at the Limits of Quantified Risk
Quantitative risk analysis has long underpinned public trust in experts who interpret and address environmental disputes. However, in the uncertain and complex context of responding to a changing climate, it has been argued that trust in scientific expertise must be warranted on norms other than experts’ competence in quantifying risk. Nowhere is this more evident than in the case of solar geoengineering. Much like abrupt climate change, solar ge…
Pathways from research to sustainable development
Drawing on collective experience from ten collaborative research projects focused on the Global South, we identify three major challenges that impede the translation of research on sustainability and resilience into better-informed choices by individuals and policy-makers that in turn can support transformation to a sustainable future. The three challenges comprise: (i) converting knowledge produced during research projects into successful knowle…
Biochar as multi-purpose sustainable technology
Biochar was recently included as a promising negative emissions technology (NET) in the Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 °C published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Unlike other NETs, it can potentially be used to mitigate global climate change while adding to local resilience in countries highly exposed and sensitive to impacts of climate change, such as least-developed countries (LDCs). The study is as an empirical con…

Limits to climate action - Narratives of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage
In recent years, bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) has been awarded a key role in climate mitigation scenarios explored by integrated assessment models and referenced in reports by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Because a majority of scenarios limiting global warming to 2 °C or 1,5 °C include vast deployment of BECCS, a critical discussion has emerged among experts about the moral implications of thus introducing …
Preconditions for bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) in sub-Saharan Africa
Most mitigation scenarios compatible with a likely change of holding global warming well below 2 °C rely on negative emissions technologies (NETs). According to the integrated assessment models (IAMs) used to produce mitigation scenarios for the IPCC reports, the NET with the greatest potential to achieve negative emissions is bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS). Crucial questions arise about where the enormous quantities of biomass…

Opening Pandora's box
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a ballooning-out of the aorta that does not normally give any symptoms. Undetected and untreated an aortic aneurysm can rupture, which in most cases is fatal. Mass screening of 65-year old men for the early detection of AAA and, in selected cases, operation seem to reduce mortality due to rupture, although, screening has not reduced the overall mortality in this group. In Västra Götaland, the southwest part of S…
Partisan Scholarship in Technoscientific Controversies
Several academic traditions have addressed epistemological objectivity and/or partisanship in the study of technoscientific controversies. On the one hand, positivist and relativist scholars agree that the political commitments of the social researcher should not impinge on scientific enquiry, while on the other hand, feminist and Marxist scholars not only take stands in diverse technoscientific debates, but even claim their agendas to be more cr…

Chinese Outcasts
Outcasts and pariahs are known to exist in several Asian countries but have usually not been associated with traditional Chinese society. Chinese Outcasts shows that some Chinese were in fact treated as outcasts or semi-outcasts. They include the boat people of South China and certain less well-known groups in different regions, including the "musicians' households" and the "fallen people". The reasons for their inferior status and perceived impu…
