The formation of green sacrifice zones is characterised by spatial-temporal reconfigurations linked to low-carbon transitions. • Extractive temporalities contribute to the creation and legitimisation of a sacrifice zone, marginalising alternative futures. • The temporal dynamics involved in the making of a green sacrifice zone are contested by affected communities
