Kenneth Karlsson – författare

This book presents the energy system roadmaps necessary to limit global temperature increase to below 2°C, in order to avoid the catastrophic impacts of climate change. It provides a unique perspective on and critical understanding of the feasibility of a well-below-2°C world by exploring energy system pathways, technology innovations, behaviour change and the macro-economic impacts of achieving carbon neutrality by mid-century. The transformative changes in the energy transition are explored using energy systems models and scenario analyses that are applied to various cities, countries and at a global scale to offer scientific evidence to underpin complex policy decisions relating to climate change mitigation and interrelated issues like energy security and the energy–water nexus. It includes several chapters directly related to the Nationally Determined Contributions proposed in the context of the recent Paris Agreement on Climate Change. In summary, the book collates a range of concrete analyses at different scales from around the globe, revisiting the roles of countries, cities and local communities in pathways to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and make a well-below-2°C world a reality. A valuable source of information for energy modellers in both the industry and public sectors, it provides a critical understanding of both the feasibility of roadmaps to achieve a well-below-2°C world, and the diversity and wide applications of energy systems models. Encompassing behaviour changes; technology innovations; macro-economic impacts; and other environmental challenges, such as water, it is also of interest to energy economists and engineers, as well as economic modellers working in the field of climate change mitigation.

Författaren Martin Thim är inte längre den han en gång varit. De frikostiga alkoholvanorna har börjat ta ut sin rätt och han åldras i en faslig takt. Men han har ett romanprojekt som måste avslutas. Förlaget behöver något lovande från honom, något de verkligen kan sälja. Det är därför han nu ska ut till Västerhavet och skriva, tillsammans med förlagsredaktören Gitte Berghold. Men hennes uppgift att få igång Martins skrivande ska snart komma att få ett abrupt slut. Under en skogspromenad skadas nämligen författaren - och försvinner sedan spårlöst. Vart kan Martin Thim egentligen ha tagit vägen? Det blir polisinspektör Frank Petersen som tar sig an fallet med den försvunna författaren och så småningom även rollen som Gittes trygga punkt. Samtidigt blossar en infekterad konflikt upp bland invånarna i det lilla jylländska samhället. Vad händer när en droppe slutligen får bägaren att rinna över? Den dansk-svenska författarduon Hanne Hansen och Kenneth Karlsson har sina respektive ursprung i Köpenhamn och Norrland. De är båda utflyttade till Spanien och har där arbetat inom sjukvården som läkare och sjuksköterska. Duons debutroman 'Om en författares död' utkom år 2021.
