Det cirkulära Skåne – Ett regionalt perspektiv på hinder och möjligheter för att främja cirkulär företagsamhet En av de största utmaningarna för att minska vår negativa klimatpåverkan är att skapa hållbar konsumtion. Hade alla konsumerat på samma sätt som vi gör i Sverige skulle fler än fyra jordklot behövas – och det är tydligt att vår konsumtion innebär ett ohållbart förbrukande av jordens resuOver the past decade, the transition to a circular economy has gained attention as a necessary step towards sustainable development. In contrast to the linear economy that is rooted in a ‘take-make-dispose’ mentality, the circular economy aims to decouple economic growth from unsustainable use of non-renewable resources by closing the material loops in the economy. While the EU recognizes that na

Traditionally they are living in northern Sweden but can be found all over the country. The Church of Sweden has a long tradition of giving church services using the native Sami language in the Swedish part of Sapmi, the Sami people name of their land. The problem of recruiting Sami speaking clergy has always been great and dif

Preferensaktier är aktier som har bättre rätt till utdelning än de mer vanligt förekommande stamaktierna. Preferensaktier kan genom att utges till specifika aktieägare användas för att göra riktade utdelningar. Arbetsinsatser och kapitalinsatser beskattas inom två olika inkomstslag med betydande skattesatsskillnader och i fåmansföretag har ägarna ofta full kontroll över bolaget. Det gör att ägarnaPreference shares are stocks which have a better right to yield than common stocks. Preference shares can, by being issued to specific shareholders, be used to make targeted distributions. Effort and capital investment are taxed in two different types of income with significant tax rate differentials. Close company owners often have full control over the company, which allows them to enter into ag

The genetics underlying bird migration have been the subject of several studies. Two willow warbler subspecies (Phylloscopus trochilus trochilus and Phylloscopus trochilus acredula) follow different routes during their winter migration to Africa. Their breeding territories overlap in a contact area or “migratory divide” across central Scandinavia and to the east of the Baltic sea. Previous genome-

Den svenska polisen har befogenhet och skyldighet att upprätthålla allmän ordning och säkerhet i Sverige. För att uppnå detta mål har polisen blivit tilldelad olika maktbefogenheter. Det faktum att en myndighet får i uppgift att upprätthålla allmän ordning är dock förknippat med ett antal risker. Befogenheter kan misstolkas och fördomar kan påverka den enskilde polisens handlande. I den här teorThe Swedish police have the authority and the obligation to maintain public order in the Swedish state. To fulfill this objective the Swedish police have been granted different powers and coercive techniques. The fact that a public authority is given this task is however associated with a number of risks. The law can be misinterpreted, and bias can influence the actions of the individual police of

In July 2021, single-use plastics will be banned from the European market, meaning that the plastic straws used with Tetra Pak’s portion packs will no longer be permitted. Therefore, Tetra Pak develops new straws, and it is important to test their functionality, something that previously has been done with panel tests. However, Tetra Pak has requested to aid the development process by minimizing t

Det är viktigt att implementera strålskydd i olika situationer där allmänheten och patienter kan utsättas för joniserande strålning, bl.a. vid olyckor som involverar joniserande strålning, undersökningar i vården eller arbetsuppgifter i kliniken och kärnkraftverk. Optimering av strålskydd och begränsning av stråldoser är väsentligt för att motverka överexponeringar och för att reducera negativa häRadiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health conseq

Language is a social act and the fact that social communities create new or change existing words that are known in daily standard language, can make the lexicon difficult to comprehend for the ones not involved. The communication that belong to a specific social group can be classified as a jargon, and in this present study we look at gaming language as an example of how social communities’ lexic

Problem description: A vast amount of research has been done on outsourcing due to the trend of outsourcing activities to low-cost countries that have influenced the manufacturing industry. However, many researchers emphasize that there is not enough research conducted on the subject of insourcing decisions. Hence, it is necessary to explore this area further to create a deeper understanding of th

Within the next thirty years, two thirds of the human population will live in a city. This growing urban population requires a major shift in the way we produce and distribute food, since industrial agriculture practices contribute to climate change, biodiversity losses, pollution of waterways, soil degradation, etc. Urban and peri-urban agriculture and forestry (UPAF) represent one of the strateg

I svensk rätt råder fri bevisvärdering. Med fri bevisvärdering menas att domstolen inte är bunden av legala regler om viss metod eller visst tillvägagångssätt när denne värderar bevis. Endast ett fåtal hållpunkter till ledning för domstolen har satts upp i förarbeten, resten lämnas till rättstillämparen att fastställa. Vid bevisvärderingen använder sig domaren av allmänna erfarenhetssatser för attThe evaluation of evidence is free in Swedish law. A free evaluation of evidence means that the court is not governed by any legal rules which makes demands on a specific method or procedure while evaluating evidence. In the preparatory work there has only been established a few points of guidance, the rest is left to the legal practitioners to establish. When evaluating evidence, the judge uses c

För under vilka förutsättningar stater kan reservera sig till vissa bestämmelser i traktat, som de ändock vill binda sig till, regleras framför allt i Wienkonventionens artikel 19. Stater får enligt denna artikel göra reservationer såvida inte: (a) en reservation är förbjuden enligt fördraget, (b) fördraget föreskriver att endast reservationer av visst slag får göras och reservationen inte är av dFor the conditions under which States may reserve themselves to certain provisions of a Convention, which they nevertheless wish to oblige themselves to, are regulated in Article 19 VCLT. States may make reservations under this Article unless: (a) a reservation is prohibited by the treaty, (b) the treaty provides that only reservations of a certain kind – and the reservation in question is not of

Porous carbon obtained from low cost and abundant biomass has gained attention as renewable material feedstock. In this study, porous carbon biochar produced through pyrolysis was investigated by Raman spectroscopy to disclose the structural properties. The measured samples were in form of pellets (identified as WP, 139, 233, 226), and lumber wood (Pine, a softwood type and Beech, a hardwood type)

Car sharing (CS) is a growing phenomenon globally but its environmental implications are not yet fully explored. While many researchers agree that it could have multiple direct environmental benefits, indirect effects like carbon emissions induced through changed consumption patterns have been poorly explored. This thesis aims to quantify and compare consumption induced carbon emissions (CCE) of C

Despite the enormous and ever-increasing amount of photographs, and their importance as historical source material, Sweden has never had any national plan for the preservation of this cultural heritage. And there is not longer any public institution, or institutions, that has a central and advisory role in regards to photography in general. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the knowledge

In tablet manufacturing, the addition of lubricant to the formulation is of high importance as it ensures smooth compression and ejection of tablets and thereby tablet quality. This study focused on lubrication of tablet formulation using magnesium stearate (MgSt) as a lubricant and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as bulk material. Powder blends were analysed to investigate whether an effect of v
