Lina Lefstad is a doctoral candidate at Lund University, Sweden, doing research on climate change mitigation policy and politics. In particular, her research focuses on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology: how this technology is imagined to be used and who this benefits, with the aim of finding ways that CCS can be governed to reach just outcomes. She has a background in ecological economics from the University of Leeds and is Co-Director of Research at the Post Growth Institute, a not-for-profit organisation that works towards achieving socio-ecological justice within planetary boundaries.
