Project description
Social and cultural life in a decarbonised Swedish county
The EU aims to be climate-neutral by 2050. EU Member State Sweden is leading the transition to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The transformation is underway. For instance, companies are phasing out fossil fuels, and models for accessibility and efficient use of vehicles are underway. The EU-funded RoughGuide project will take a close look at the social and cultural aspects of daily life in a climate-changed and decarbonised society. With a focus on Skåne, it will develop a speculative travel guide to this decarbonised county in the southernmost part of Sweden. The project will implement a novel methodology for social engagement with climate policy. The findings will be useful to both scientists and policymakers.
