2) combine theories for innovation
3) you're smarter with friends
4) be humble (the practical world is harder)

We've all seen these charts. They go viral on social media every few months, with claims that "green growth is happening".

Food for thought after the panel discussion in the Celsius Lecture @uppsalauni about how science can engage with society to build a safer and more just future moderated by CNDS Director.
