Norwegian food security in scenarios with abrupt sunlight reduction
This report, prepared in collaboration with ALLFED, highlights the ongoing threat to Norway's food systems from abrupt sunlight reduction scenarios (ASRS), caused by events such as a volcanic eruption, nuclear conflict or an asteroid impact. Historically, such scenarios have severely disrupted the global climate and would have catastrophic consequences for food security around the world if they were to occur again. However, there are effective measures that Norwegian authorities can take to strengthen preparedness both before and after such an event, which can reduce disruptions to the food system and save lives globally.

Media coverage
Vil ha et framtidsombud. Den nye framtidsetikken er relevant her og nå, mener «årets ledestjerne» Eirik Mofoss.
Eirik Mofoss, årets ledestjerne i Dagens Næringsliv diskuterer nødvendigheten av langsiktighet i politikken. Som fagdirektør i Norad er han opptatt av vitenskapelig og rasjonell tilnærming til bistand, og han foreslår et ombud for framtidige generasjoner, inspirert av barneombudet. Mofoss utfordrer også dagens vurdering av verdi på framtidige liv i samfunnsøkonomiske analyser og oppfordrer til en dypere refleksjon over nasjonens investeringer, som oljefondet, for å sikre en lysere framtid for kommende generasjoner.
