Popular Abstract in Swedish Avfall har alltid uppkommit i alla samhällen i alla tider. Det vanligaste sättet att hand om det har varit att samla avfallet i soptippar (deponier) på mark som ansetts obrukbar, t.ex. i sankmarker utanför bebyggelsen. I takt med ökad konsumtion och produktion har också mängderna avfall ökat. Anledningen till att avfall och avfallshantering kommit alltmer i fokus i miljA methodology based on an analytical protocol for evaluation of hazards from landfill leachate and solid waste is described. A dynamic analytical protocol, the LAQUA protocol, including measurements of inorganic and water-quality parameters, polar and non-polar organic marker compounds, and toxicity, was constructed. An acute toxicity test, using the brackish water crustacean Artemia salina as tes

In this paper I draw on two case studies of how environmental impacts are assessed in large scale golf developments to illustrate the political ecology of leisure and how countrysides are reshaped to cater for elite consumption (McCarthy 2008). In 2008 Trump International Golf Links Scotland gained permission to build a golf resort, potentially the largest in the UK, along the Aberdeenshire coast.

Effects of an in-car speed limiter were investigated in three European countries, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden representing different regions and driving cultures. The study was carried out in urban and surrounding areas. Most of the European speed limit categories, ranging from 30 km/h to 120 km/h were included. The effects of the limiter were greatest in free driving conditions outside plat

The focus of the study is on the importance of early optimism for adult subjective well-being (SWB). Only females were studied. Data from age 13 and age 43 were taken from the Swedish longitudinal research program Individual Development and Adaptation (IDA, Magnusson, 1988). We investigated the longitudinal relationship between early optimism and optimism at age 43, its mediation via positive and

Abstract in Undetermined This paper describes the Swedish-Polish Sustainable Energy Platform, its background, purpose and goals, as well as the partnerships between Sweden and Poland to establish this initiative. The paper also outlines a project initiated by the Swedish-Polish Sustainable Energy Platform to describe and analyze sustainable energy systems in Sweden, particularly from the perspecti

A stream of research has highlighted the variations in competitive dynamics where the aim of firm interaction can range from competition, in order to appropriate value from competitors, to cooperation with competitors for mutual benefit. This study develops a typology of coopetitive value creation-appropriation strategies in standardization settings and then outlines a framework of a coopetitive c
