The text introduces a guide for cultural workers in Norway, distinguishing between two approaches to the climate crisis: the 'road to the left,' which focuses on the industry's own carbon footprint and sustainability certifications, and the 'road to the right,' which focuses on systemic change and climate justice. The author argues that the cultural sector must address the role of the oil industry in the climate crisis and provide platforms for those most affected by climate change to achieve a sustainable transition.

  • The document identifies the oil industry as the primary cause of the climate crisis and argues that the Norwegian cultural sector must stop self-censoring and explicitly call for an end to oil exploration to support a sustainable transition.
  • A central goal of the guide is to encourage the cultural field to provide platforms and visibility to people who are currently on the front lines of the climate crisis and most severely affected by it.
