*Consuming the Environment 2017 - multidiciplinary approaches to 
urbanization and vulnerability *

*Conference and workshop 3-5 December 2017 at the University of Gävle, 
Sweden *

**

Climate change, environmental degradation, people escaping war and hard 
living circumstances are questions the media report on daily. How severe 
is it? What do people know, how are they informed and what are they 
thinking? What are media telling us? In what way are environmental 
concerns dealt with in different academic disciplines? In popular 
culture? What about education and politics? What more do we need know?

The University of Gävle is pleased to invite you to contribute with 
articles and posters.
