The global community is unanimous: societies need to rapidly transition to a post-fossil era. This means rebuilding infrastructures and practices in ways we may not yet imagine. How can we really understand what life would be without fossil fuels? How do images and narratives operate as a means for changing human relationships to fossil fuels? Join Paavo Järvensivu, Ashley Dawson, and artist group Not An Alternative to discuss political, economic and cultural battles and visions related to this transition, with special attention to different perspectives in the US, across Europe, and in the Global South.
