    E6: Dispelling myths about sustainable consumption

    Which myths persist about sustainable consumption, where do they come from, and how can they be dispelled? These questions are explored in this latest podcast episode with researchers in the Mistra-funded project Sustainable Consumption – from Niche to Mainstream: Oksana Mont, Matthias Lehner, Josefine Henman, Jessika Richter, Marianne Ekdahl, and Mikael Klintman. Together with the host, Philipp Montenegro, they discuss a selection of myths drawn from the forthcoming book Dispelled: Myths about Sustainable Consumption (to be published in early 2026). The book, as well as a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC), addresses 12 myths about sustainable consumption, why they matter, and how to dispel them [Enroll here for free.] In addition, we also mention two books by Mikael Klintman: Framing (2025): The Social Art of Influence and Knowledge Resistance (2019): How We Avoid Insight from Others.

    E5: Women in Power

    Why are women still underrepresented in Sweden’s energy sector, despite the country leading the EU in gender equality? This episode hosted by Philipp Montenegro explores Women in Power, a research project led by Daniela Lazoroska with Jenny Palm and Anna-Riikka Kojonsaari from the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University’s. The project, running from 2023-2027, investigates how women’s professional networks and collective efforts are driving change, offering mentorship, and challenging industry norms. Backed by the Swedish Energy Agency, the research provides qualitative empirical insights into how social capital translates into career advancement and broader inclusion.Find out more here: https://portal.research.lu.se/sv/projects/women-in-power-peer-networking-and-collectivization-towards-diverand the publications that have so far come from the project:1. A gender perspective on the circular economy: A literature review and research agenda. Access here : https://doi.org/10.1111/jiec.13554 2. Gender-based opportunity structure in the energy sector: a literature review on women’s networking and mentoring.

    Sustainable Business Model Design – Patterns to Make Sustainability Work

    Businesses are an essential driver for sustainability, yet managers struggle to make decisions about their business model that actually improve their sustainability performance. In this episode, we meet Florian Lüdeke-Freund, Henning Breuer, and Lorenzo Massa, authors of the new book called ‘Sustainable Business Model Design’. They introduce the concept of sustainable business model patterns, to support practitioners eager to make sustainability work in their business context. A sustainable business model pattern is knowledge based on experience, which includes a statement of a challenge, and a suggestion for a solution to address this challenge, with the deliberate aim of creating sustainable value. Thus, patterns represent templates to be adapted from one context to another to support creativity and experimentation. We provide several examples of patterns, as well as ways that practitioners may use patterns in their context. This episode is the final episode of our fourth season – we will be back in September 2022 with a new episode every month! Until then!
