Why don't we act when we have known the challenges of climate change for over thirty years? Such are the questions I deal with in my research when doing in-depth empirical studies creatively combined with concepts from ecofeminism, posthumanities, discourse analysis and actor-network theory. At the moment I'm the research leader of a three year project dealing with social- and ecological entrepreneurship in the circular economy and one about climate change denialism. Simultaneously I develop knowledge around energy transitions, masculinities and environment.
