In this special episode of Stories for the Future, I moderate a panel at the Beyond Oil Conference 2025: Changing Climate Futures conference in Bergen. Our theme: Actionable Hope in a Changing Climate Future.We talk about what hope does when the world feels like it’s unraveling — and what it looks like when hope becomes something you act on. In this episode you’ll hear voices from science, media, creative arts and strategy — and come away with ideas for how to lean into hope, not just as a feeling, but as a modality of change.👥 Panel & Conference LinksHere are the people on the panel and links to their work so you can dive deeper:Kikki Flesche Kleiven — Director of the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research, University of Bergen.
