Most Danes are worried about climate change and support ambitious climate policy, yet concern and knowledge rarely turn into changed behaviour. This evening takes that gap as its starting point. Air travel is growing, consumption of imported and fast fashion is rising, and meat consumption is not falling, while politicians are hesitant to regulate everyday consumption.
Two experts join the debate. Mads Ejsing is a postdoc and member of the expert group in Copenhagen Municipality's climate citizens' assembly. Jens Friis Lund is a professor and co-founder of the research initiative Klima- og Omstillingsrådet. Together they explore the paradox and what can be done about it.
