Is time an ally of the invader? Time-binding the future of invasive alien species
Invasive alien species, when perceived as an environmental problem, are a typical example of a problem that necessitates action before the full effects can be seen. This temporal gap has led to an increased focus on the future and to reliance on practices that aim to make the future actionable, such as risk assessments. However, the discourse on invasive alien species also depends heavily on specific spatiotemporal understandings, established wit…
Naturkrisen – en global krise for lokal natur
I 2019 dukket et nytt krisebegrep opp i norske aviser: «naturkrisen». Det ble raskt et retorisk verktøy i vindkraftdebatten. «Naturkrisen» brukes i bestemt form entall, gjerne sammen med «klimakrisen», og bidrar til å samle mange lokale hendelser til ett globalt problem. Slik kan det balansere den globale klimakrisen og brukes til å vise at ens posisjon i vindkraftdebatten er forenelig med både klima- og miljøengasjement. Endringen av balanseforh…
Climate Change Temporalities
In 1804, Christen Pram was sent by the Danish-Norwegian government in Copenhagen to investigate the rumours that ash from the burning of kelp along the north-western coast of Norway was causing the climate to change. The chapter follows Pram’s journey and analyses his efforts to understand what was going on. His initial determination was to rely solely on systematic observation and scientific method, but he gradually came to acknowledge the value…

The Past as a Mirror
During the past decades, notions of Earth dynamics and climate change have changed drastically, as anthropogenic CO2-emissions are linked to measurable Earth system changes. At the same time, Earth scientists have discovered deep time climate changes triggered by large scale and natural release of CO2. As the understanding of past climatic changes improved, they were used to envision what might happen in the near future. This article explores the…
Making Invisible Changes Visible
Communicating biodiversity loss and other environmental threats is never only about relating natural science data. How different environmental discourses are presented, how they intertwine, and what concepts of nature are implied, are important parts of environmental communication. The release of the 2015 Norwegian Red List for Species by the Norwegian Biodiversity Information Centre was commented on by governmental and non-governmental organizat…
