Nordic power
Norden
Tomorrow I’m speaking at an event at the school of business at the University of Gothemburg. The organization for Nordic cooperation is hosting the event and the topic is what the Nordic countries can do together and what role we can play in the global climate negotiations. I haven’t thought much about it before but I’m now quite excited about the idea of having the five Nordic countries pushing a common agenda. We are quite similar as people with quite similar ideals and aspirations as to what role we want to play on the global playing field. I’m optimistic about the possibilities to shape and push common ideas and proposals, not least within mechanisms for financing mitigation efforts as well as technology transfer and technological development. Perhaps there are also possibilities to take on the trade and climate change issue together, and why not foreign investments and environmental impacts.
