Short biography
Following a career in industrial and space robotics research, I co-founded Solid Sustainability Research with Linda Knoester to do action-oriented research into greenwashing, climate justice and migration. We provide insight into obstructors of the transition to a low-carbon and equitable society. Our largest project to date is investigating, documenting and analysing ties between Dutch academia and the fossil fuel industry as part of the Mapping Fossil Ties coalition, see: www.mappingfossilties.org.
