With apologies for cross-posting, here comes an announcement for a great seminar taking place this Friday!
*Webinar: **Politics and policies for supply-side climate change initiatives* 18th of June, 15:00 -18:00 CEST (UTC+2) ‘The solution is clear: fossil fuels must be kept in the ground.’ 101 Nobel Laureates’ Statement to Climate Summit World Leaders, 21/4/2021 This webinar will examine the political economy of supply-side climate policies. These policies are being designed and advocated by diverse and vast coalitions and include a variety of instruments at different scales to achieve the ambition of making dramatic cuts in carbon dioxide emissions. The challenge is to articulate political positions, institutional structures, and policy tools that can help formulate a range of concrete, realistic and widely applicable proposals to substantiate the potential of supply-side climate policies to contribute to the transformation of the global economy. The webinar will offer the opportunity to preview and discuss the articles for the forthcoming *Global Environmental Politics* Special Issue on Supply Side Climate Policies To register, please follow this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/157616289565 *Programme:* *Introduction and Welcome* *Lorenzo Pellegrini and Murat Arsel* 15:00-15:15 *Assessing Pathways toward an International Agreement to Leave Fossil Fuels in the Ground* *Peter Newell and Harro van Asselt* 15:15-15:30 *Stifling climate ambition: Addressing the influence of fossil fuel incumbents on climate policy* *development* *Georgia Piggot and Claudia Strambo* 15:30-15:45 *Connections and Contradictions in supply-side climate politics: Mapping Anti-Coal Blockadia* *movements globally* *Brototi Roy, Tonny Nowshin, Alice Owen, Andrea Cardoso, Daniela del Bene, Daria Rivin, Joan* *Martinez-Alier* 15:45-16:00 *The Politics of Fossil Fuel Supply and Climate Leadership in Norway and Canada* *Guri Bang and Kathryn Harrison* 16:00-16:15 *Beyond the Yasuni-ITT Initiative: new perspectives on supply-side climate strategies in the* *Ecuadorean Amazon* *Carlos F.
