Climate change and biodiversity loss are forcing our society to strive towards a green transition. The threat is that the changes will generate inequality and conflicts. We can still influence what the changes are like and how they are implemented. Join us on Night of Science to discuss with researchers the fair and just promotion of the green transition and to feel what the desired future feels like in the body! The event is arranged in Finnish.
