Solving the Climate Crisis – A Nordic Contribution
At their summer meeting in Finland in 2007, the five Nordic Prime
Ministers decided to strengthen efforts related to Nordic research
and innovation. They asked the Nordic Council of Ministers to draw
up a proposal that would promote Nordic top-level research in close
cooperation with trade and industry. The Nordic Prime Ministers met
again in April 2008 at the Riksgränsen ski resort in Sweden, where
they drew up the Riksgränsen Declaration which laid the foundation for
the largest joint Nordic effort to promote research and innovation ever
undertaken, focusing on climate, energy and the environment. The Prime Ministers’ pioneering Nordic cooperative effort became the Top-level Research Initiative. This book describes some of the important results from the initiative.
