Mistra-SWECIA Science Seminar #2 2010, March 26
Two important issues at the intersection between the economy, energy use and climate change are (i) the dynamics of pricing and extraction of oil and other fossil fuels, and (ii) the effects of new technologies based on clean energy sources. The Mistra-SWECIA Science seminar at the IIES on March 26 will be devoted to ongoing research on these issues. Non Mistra-SWECIA people are also welcome.Webcasts and presentations from the seminar.
