Hey Class!

As we are reading Storms of my Grandchildren it is also relevant to check out the updates to the climate science on James Hansen's website and blog, where you can also find loads of other presentations, videos, and information that he has contributed to. Excellent source of information!

Cheers, CCs

Next Week: Stakeholder Dialogue

Hej folks!

Next week we will be discussing the politics of natural resource management with a focus on a specific case in Jokkmokk in Northern Sweden. We have divided you into groups which are posted in studentportalen and assigned you an actor for next week's meeting. You should focus on this actor when you read the article before class and we encourage you to try to search for more information about each actor as well! Use the questions on padlet to guide your reading.

There is also a pdf copy of the Robert Yin book on studentportalen now.

Happy Reading!
