In this episode, "Prioritizing Lower Emissions: How Can We Quantify Decisions?", you will hear a recording of a panel discussion led by Stina Ellevseth Oseland, Head of Climate for the City of Bergen. She begins by asking the expert panel members, Stefan Hjørleifsson, Oddvar Kaarboe, and Anand Bhopal, the following question: "If money and politics were not an issue, what would you implement tomorrow, and why?"
This recording, along with the next episode, features live recordings from three panel discussions held at the Sustainability Seminar at Alrek Health Cluster on May 13, 2025, titled “How Can We Reduce the Climate Footprint of Healthcare?”
Since these are live recordings, the sound quality is not the best and is far from studio quality. However, we found the content so interesting that we wanted to create podcast episodes from it anyway. This episode is in English, and the next one is in Norwegian.
Enjoy!

What is 17-målspodden?
Velkommen til podkasten 17-målspodden. Podkasten lages av Siri Smith og Knut Vindenes, som er ansatt på HVL.
Navnet til podkasten reflekterer FNs 17 bærekraftmål: https://fn.no/om-fn/fns-baerekraftsmaal
Vårt mål med podkasten er at de ulike episodene vil gi deg innsikt i hvordan både HVL og ulike aktører i samfunnet, som politikere, næringsliv, offentlige og frivillige organisasjoner, osv. jobber med bærekraftig utvikling.
Vi minner om at bærekraftmålene til FN skal være innfridd i 2030, så tiden begynner å bli knapp.
