Norway is working hard to defossiliate!🦕We started with the most important issues, renaming government agencies working with oil and gas: "Ministry of oil and energy" = "Ministry of energy". "Norwegian Petroleum Directorate" = "Norwegian Offshore Directorate". Fixed it! ✅ www.nrk.no/stor-oslo/re...
Ble advart mot grønnvasking: Fjernet likevel «olje» fra alle navn
75 prosent av de ansatte jobber med olje og gass. Likevel fjernet regjeringen «olje» fra navnet på direktoratet.

Avsløringene i NTNU saken fremstår som veldig alvorlige. Det er ikke overraskende at rektoren går av etter å ha lest meldingene hun utvekslet med NHO ledelse. Det er interessant hvordan «sunn ytringskultur» brukes for å diskvalifisere faglig kritikk.

Historians: why oh why do you refer to literature in a two-step process?? An endnote in the text leads to an incomplete reference at the end of the book/chapter that needs to be searched for in the Bibliography to get a proper title and publication year. You’re killing me!
