        Summary
        The thesis provides an analysis of different understandings of technological innovation and the role they play in tackling the environmental crisis, identifying two main directions in the narratives presented, namely a “More Innovation Approach” and a “Radical Innovation Approach”. I analyse these different attitudes starting from their use of the concept of innovation.
