The main sustainability goal of many small islands in the North Sea is to become self supplied in renewable energy in 20-30 years. The majority of the islands are trying to repeat Samsø‘s success – to make a transition towards energy sustainable system by new energy production from local renewable sources such as wind, solar and biomass. However, for other islands like Spiekeroog island, a tourist
In an era of globalization, international legal frameworks and vigorous international politics, we cannot refrain from hearing about the extensive health crisis of the developing world. HIV/AIDS, Malaria and drug resistant tuberculosis are only a few of the widespread disease which appear almost surreal to the citizens of the industrial world. The debates and discussions regarding the importance o
Vessel-source pollution is regarded as one of the major sources that harm marine environment. It has become an issue of public concern since 20th century due to a series of oil pollution incidents on the sea. Fortunately, international law has been developed to control this source of pollution taking consideration of the importance of protection and preservation of marine environment and sustainab
Cerebral Palsy, commonly referred to as CP, is a neurological disorder that results in loss or impairment of motor function, which affects body movement, muscle control, muscle coordination and balance.

Principen om skyldigheten att skydda är kontroversiell och har varit det sedan International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty introducerade principen. Principen antogs enhälligt av Förenta Nationernas medlemsstater 2005 och verkade vara ett nytt sätt att skydda medmänskliga värden. Principen om skyldigheten att skydda används för att skydda befolkningen inom stater där staterna sjäThe responsibility to protect is a controversial principle and has been ever since it was introduced by the International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty in 2001. Unanimously adopted by the United Nations member states in 2005 the principle seemed to be a new way of protecting humanitarian values. To protect the citizens of states when the states themselves are unwilling or unable
Potato protein is an industrial side product with highly desirable properties which can be utilized if the toxic glycoalkaloids can be removed in a gentle way which doesn’t damage the protein. The challenge within this project is to find an extraction technique efficient enough to remove the toxic glycoalkaloids, but still mild enough to preserve the protein from denaturation. Supercritical CO2 ex
3D printing of metal components is a growing industry where the demand of highly precise and complicated geometrical metal structures are met. Höganäs is with its Digital Metal department one of the few companies that do 3D-printing by powder bed ink-jet technique. In this technique a binding material is needed in order to retain the designated structure until sintering. In this project a 316 L g

To find the optimal by-pass road alignment in the Tlokweng Planning Area in Botswana, a multi-criteria spatial-based model is developed using the GIS-MCE approach. In respect to the environmental impact assessment (EIA) approach, in this research a set of criteria is classified under 3 themes – economic, environmental and social. To determine the criterion and theme weights and perform their aggre
The issue of pharmaceutical pollution has recently gained attention on the international political agenda as several actors have raised concern for its negative impact on ecosystems, human health, and livelihoods in emerging economies where an increasing share of the pharmaceutical production is located due to the cheaper labor and less stringent environmental regulations.

It drew from the theories of feminism and masculinity as well as Feminist Security Studies and gender and development studies. In order to achieve its objective, the study adopted a triangulated research method which involved Discourse Ana
Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, a polar ocean specialist, thrives in the Antarctic severe physical conditions. The krill life cycle consists of strategies that have enabled and supported the species’ dominance of the Antarctic Ocean. Sea Ice extent and duration creates condition that are crucial for survival of the Furcilia larvae. The species has flexibility to food resources and is omnivorou
