Yes this. There is literally no reason for it to be difficult.

If you're going to Oslo (or any Norwegian city) fly on SAS, sign up for the frequent flyer scheme (which means they offset your emissions) and pay for biofuel. It's still flying, but it's about as sustainable as you can get.
The alternative, low emission but longer time (more than 4 days) option is to get the train - Eurostar to Paris, then to Hamburg/Copenhagen/Gothenbug/Oslo and from there you will probably need a car. But electric car infrastructure in Norway is incredible, so that's always an option if you can hire one.
