The trouble with negative emissions – Articles in Science and Climate Policy by Kevin Anderson
The Paris Agreement on climate change and the carbon-reduction plans of many governments (including Sweden) are unwittingly reliant on unproven technologies to suck hundreds of billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere. Over the last year Zennström Professor Kevin Anderson and colleagues have publised articles in Science and Climate Policy

A World-Leading Node in Climate Change Leadership
With a 10-year series of visiting professorships, Zennström Philanthropies and Uppsala University are enabling the development of an enviromment that will directly address some of the most challenging questions that climate change poses to humanity, develop novel solutions, and enable transformative change in the nexus of science, policy and innovation. The professors will in distinct but mutually reinforcing ways, inspire new research and education and catalyze the much needed action toward a more sustainable future.
Uppsala Centre for Sustainable Development serves as an enabling platform to fully draw upon the breadth of Uppsala University, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, as well as other relevant partners and stakeholders at the local, national and international levels. Evidence and lessons generated by knowledge co-production between academia and society at large, are drawn on to both enact change and develop innovative approaches for effective and just climate change leadership.
Creating a student-led platform for engagement on climate change in Uppsala
Sprung out of the engagement and collaboration between students and faculty from Uppsala university and SLU that attended COP21, the Uppsala Climate Platform aims to encourage and facilitate engagement on climate change in Uppsala. The platform has recently prepared students to represent Uppsala University at the UN climate meeting in Bonn in May, and are planning a trip to COP23 in Bonn in the fall, and much more. For more information and to see their reports from the latest climate negotiations visit http://www.web.cemus.se/uucc/ and to get involved contact the platform at uuccplatform@gmail.com or visit their website.
Kevin Anderson – Zennström Visiting Professor 2016-2018
Kevin Anderson is one of the leading climate scientists in the U.K. He is Professor of Energy and Climate Change at the University of Manchester and Deputy Director at the renowned Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research. Kevin is a well-known and established researcher within climate change science who engages frequently with policy-makers, the private sector, civil society as well as the media. He has pioneered research on carbon budgets and pathways to acceptable mitigation levels. His work on the technical, social and economic interactions involved in the transformation of energy systems and the mitigation and adaptation to climate change, address questions at the core of the professorship’s theme. Kevin is a prominent thinker, writer and communicator who will build on and expand the work of the first visiting professor in climate change leadership, Doreen Stabinsky.
Doreen Stabinsky – Zennström Visiting Professor 2015-2016
Doreen Stabinsky is Professor of Global Environmental Politics at the
College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine. Her research, teaching, and writing concern the impacts of climate change, particularly on agriculture and global food security. She also serves as advisor to various governments and international environmental organisations, and has a large international network of collaborators. Doreen stresses the central role that education must play in addressing the growing challenges of climate change and is known for her ability to strengthen young people’s capacity to contribute to a better world. The fact that the focus of the professorship itself was inspired by, and emerged from a student-led course on Climate Change Leadership at CEMUS, makes Doreen a very fitting first holder of the Zennström Visiting Professorship.
Zennström Philanthropies
The professorship is made possible by an earlier donation to Uppsala University by the entrepreneur Niklas Zennström. Zennström, an alumni of Uppsala University and the co-founder of Skype, Kazaa, Joos and other companies, is currently running his own investment firm, Atomico, which invests in innovative technology companies. With a strong commitment to societal issues, through his organisation Zennström Philanthropies, he is contributing to various causes, including climate change research and other initiatives in the area of climate change.
