The COP15 United Nations Summit on Climate Change has brought a lot of attention to the environmental challenges that our Planet will face in the near future. The developments in technology and productivity of the last century have not only radically changed our lives and increased our dependency on energy; it has also shown us the impact of our actions and lifestyle.
In recognition of the complexities of this issue and the vastness of the subject, Atomium Culture and Lund University have organised the writing of the Report and the High-Level Workshop on Governance for a Low-Carbon Society (HLW) to stimulate new insights and ideas from bringing together leading thinkers from university, industry, media and policy makers to discuss on the real issues and barriers of this debate.
