This paper finds that an increase in population size had a disproportionately large effect on carbon emissions for OECD countries between 1990 - 2007. A 1% increase in total population increased carbon emissions by 1.3%. As the relationship is non-unitary, this suggests that as population size increases, so do emissions per capita. Moreover, countries with higher population densities produced less

I svensk rätt kan även den som enbart i mindre grad deltar i ett brott dömas till ansvar. Denne döms då som medhjälpare — inte gärningsman. Var den nedre gränsen går för medhjälpsansvaret tycks ha hamnat i skymundan för den debatt som på senare tid rört den övre ansvarsgränsen, med andra ord gränsen mellan vem som är att anse som medhjälpare respektive gärningsman. Syftet med denna uppsats är att In Swedish law even a person who only in a lesser degree is involved with a crime, still stands the risk of becoming subject to punishment by criminal law. In such a case the person will be sentenced as a medhjälpare (helper), instead of a gärningsman (actual criminal offender). The question regarding the lower criminal area for those who not play a major role in a crime, seems to have been neglec
