In 2015, the 193 UN member states launched the Sustainable Development Goals which aim to guide developmental and environmental work worldwide. The SDGs have stirred up a lot of interest and engagement for climate change and poverty reduction, although opinions of their approach widely differ. This thesis critically engages with SDG12: Sustainable Production and Consumption Patterns by drawing on
Att tillgång till exploaterbar mark i stationsnära lägen är begränsad och att det ofta finns stor ekonomisk potential vid lämplig markanvändning, är anledningar till att det finns ett samhälle-ligt intresse av att marken används effektivt. Kommunen har genom planmonopolet ensamrätt att styra hur marken ska användas genom detaljplanering. I planprocessutredningen pekades onödig detaljeringsgrad ut
The aim of this essay is to investigate if the Judas figure in the Gospel of Mark was a betrayer or a servant, who only wanted to fulfill Jesus’ will, by discussing the significance of παραδίδωμι in these texts, and in relation to Isaiah 53. The question is: in what way is the Judas figure in the Gospel of Mark shaped by the verb παραδίδωμι in Isaiah 53:6 and 53:12 according to LXX (the Septuagint
Alzheimers sjukdom och nanopartiklar – blir vi dementa snabbare? Demenssjukdomar kommer märkbart att påverka vår allt mer åldrande befolkning. Alzheimers sjukdom är den vanligaste av dessa och leder till exempel till minnesförlust och förändrad personlighet. En sak som kännetecknar sjukdomen är bildandet av plack i hjärnan. Plack består av ihopklumpade protein. Proteinet som utgör dessa utgör desAbstract Alzheimer’s disease is a common form of dementia with one of its hallmarks being the formation of plaques in the brain consisting of fibrils formed from the amyloid beta peptide (Aβ). Nanoparticles have in vitro been shown to affect the rate of which these fibrils form. When nanoparticles enter a biological system they will be covered with proteins, a protein corona is formed. In this st
An increasingly amount of parents choose to drive their children to the school. The tendency has increased to a point when schools parking areas is too congested which impairs road safety. When motorists no longer have any space to legally unload their kids, they park in unsuitable locations that significantly increase the risk of an accident. The increasing amount of car driving is not only creat
Around the world, the treatment of food waste is a major administrative and environmental problem throughout the food supply chain. Beijing, as any other mega city, is facing vast issues of sustainable food waste treatment in addition to efforts for food waste reduction. Presently the majority of Beijing's food waste is treated together with the mixed residual waste in landfills (53%) and inci
This paper examines the relationship between ultra-low interest rates and the amount of zombie firms using panel data for Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland over the period 2007-2020 in a multivariable regression model. Specifically, the questions addressed are: is there a relationship between the interest rate and the amount of zombie firms? Could it be concluded that the amount of zombie firms
We introduce the basic theory of currents as continuous linear functionals on compactly supported smooth differential forms. By using slicing and metric-space-valued functions of bounded variation, we prove that the subspace of integer-multiplicity rectifiable currents with locally finite mass enjoy a certain sequential compactness property. This compactness theorem is then used to prove the exist
In a recent paper, Hur and Wheeler proved the existence of periodic steady water waves over an infinitely deep, two-dimensional and constant vorticity flow and subject to gravity whose profile overhangs, among which, waves whose surface touches at a point, enclosing a bubble of air. We take this further, proving the existence of a continuous curve of water waves from a laminar flow up to a touchin
Kv. Renen 13 i centrala Varberg är sedan tidigare känt som kraftigt förorenat. På fastigheten har det från slutet av 1800-talet fram till 2003 funnits verksamheter i form av textilindustri som avlösts av finmekanisk verkstadsindustri. Det är framförallt den sistnämnda verksamheten som har orsakat rådande situation med höga halter klorerade lösningsmedel, trikloreten (TCE) och 1,1,1-trikoletan (TCAAn old industry estate, Kv. Renen 13, is located in central Varberg, southwest Sweden, and is known from previous investigations as highly polluted. Pollution started in the late 19th century with textile manufacturing, and in the 1960´s changed into a precision mechanics industry using chlorinated solvents, primary trichloroethene (TCE) and 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), as well as cyanide and meta
Economic Growth is often cited as a driving force behind electricity consumption. Pakistan has an under-developed Electricity Sector, and this restrains the economic activities in the country. Load-shedding, which are power outages scheduled by the government, are a frequent occurrence, and these outages affect all sectors of the Pakistani economy. The Energy Crisis (based on electricity shortage)
To this day, battery of women is a global problem. The aim of this paper is to examine this problem in the country that is considered to be one of the most equal countries in the world, namely Sweden. How big a problem is it, what is the social outlook of the victim and how does the Swedish justice system respond to this issue? These are some of the questions that will help to form an answer to th
Nearly half of the worlds population is individuals under the age of eighteen. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child state in its first article that a child is ?every human being below the age of 18 years?. Our aim and purpose with this essay is to problemize this broad definition. Our hypothesis is that the definition brought by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is too wide and
Rätten till arbete, som utgör en av de mest centrala mänskliga rättigheterna och även ses som en grundläggande förutsättning för samhällsintegrering, är införlivad i en rad olika MR-instrument. Lika tillgång till arbetsmarknaden är en mycket viktig aspekt av denna rättighet, som även utmanar den underliggande norm om universalitet som präglar det internationella ramverket för mänskliga rättigheterThe right to work, as one of the most crosscutting and enabling socio-economic rights, as well as a basic requirement for social integration, is enshrined in a wide range of international human rights instruments. Equal access to the labour market is one important aspect of this right that challenges the underlying universality norm of the human rights regime by imposing on states the obligation t
