Summary:
Social learning is the focus of applied and increasingly interdisciplinary scholarship in environmental education, climate change adaptation, natural resource governance and ecosystem management. Despite interest in the concept, important questions remain about the use and application of social learning in these contexts and its relevance to the challenge of global social ecological change. To explore these issues, approximately 35 participants gathered for the workshop, “Social Learning and Sustainability: Exploring Critical Issues in Relation to Environmental Change and Governance" on June 1—2, 2010, at the Stockholm Resilience Centre. This publication summarizes the key outcomes of the workshop.

Mistra-SWECIA Science seminar: The effects of different energy sources and technological progress on climate change
Fossil energy and technological progress are two important factors that potentially influence climate change. Today, the main source of energy is fossil energy, and its use generates CO2-emissions with global warming as result. Technological progress can however improve the energy efficiency and potentially lead to the implementation of alternative clean energy sources that may partially or fully...
