Vår tids kremlologi

The UK value chain for fossil decommissioning seem to be struggling. There is clearly no lack of work to be done, but the oil and gas industry is too slow in ensuing the important clean-up effort. Where are the regulators?

I höst är det åter dags för CMS Marxkonferens i Stockholm. Huvudtemat för Marx25 är Imperialism, och vi välkomnar därför presentationer och sessioner från forskare, aktivister och andra intresserade som vill belysa temat med hjälp av teoretiska verktyg och praktiska exempel.

The dark side of North Sea oil industry: Drilling rigs built in Norway that have serviced for years on the Norwegian continental shelf gets sent off to Turkey where they are dismantled under hazardous conditions.

Equinor vanner ut fornybarambisjonene sine ytterlige. Klimapolitikk i form av homeopatisk medisin!

The confidence of Equinor et al in ditching "transition" plans and refocusing on oil is a direct result of governments worldwide showing they have no intention of stopping them

The narrative about Colombia 'surrendering to Trump's blackmail' over migrant deportations is repeated in many channels, also in Norwegian media, but not accurate.

New opinion poll shows 85% of Greenlanders do not want to join US

Hard to believe but 18 years ago, I sent the great Alfonso Cuaron an advance copy of The Shock Doctrine and asked if he might be willing to write a blurb. He made a short film instead. This is it. Still chills me. Share with whoever you think it might help. www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7fW...

Norway doubles down on oil and gas with 53 new licenses, paving the way for costly new exploration – of which Norwegian tax payers will pay at least 78% – thereby creating a huge incentive for the whole oil-industrial complex to get new fields online.

Palestinian babies are not spontaneously freezing to death. They are being deliberately subjected to conditions calculated to terminate life. In other words, they are being murdered. The cause of death is not the cold, but the genocide being perpetrated by Israel and the US.

Please allow me to re-share my rough sketch of some advanced carbon capture technology

Unsettling. How do we avoid this fate in the North Sea?

Trepartssamarbeidets versjon av "jeg nekter å komme i bursdagen din"

Just stumbled over the work of this UK-based artist who have worked offshore for years to document the offshore energy structures and their decommissioning. Sublime!

The left can find their classics at marxists.org, the right has ... cia.gov?!

Today the Danish government revealed it got ZERO bids for 3GW offshore wind projects, the first half of the much-celebrated 6GW parliament voted to tender in 2023. The reason? The price is wrong: renewables will not be expanded enough when fossil fuels are much more profitable ens.dk/en/press/nor...

A very recommendable read. Deeply unsettling, yet hopeful. Get your copy to find out what we can learn from Lenin & Lincoln when confronting fossil capital!

"Arbeiderklassen er ikke det revolusjonære subjektet fordi det er arbeiderne som lider mest, men fordi de utfører arbeidsoppgavene som får samfunnet til å gå rundt, og som derfor har de praktiske og sosiale ferdighetene som trengs for å styre samfunnet gjennom revolusjonen"
