The ongoing climate change may have devastating consequences all over the world. Most scientists are in agreement that the cause of this global environmental problem is anthropogenic releases of greenhouse gases, of which the main contributor is the combustion of fossil fuels. In order to limit these effects, it is imperative to take action immediately, globally as well as locally. Earlier resear
Nature has provided us with delicious and nutritious food for many years. It is estimated that one third of all edible food is wasted globally. This means a substantial loss of resources. Consumers are unaware of the great amount of avoidable food waste that is created from household consumption and the environmental impact it has.

Media har, på senare år, fått ett större inflytande över världspolitiken tack vare den globala utbredningen av sociala medier med hjälp av internet. Vid projektets start hade vi en teori om att tillgång till fria sociala medier är en av faktorerna som påverkar och sedermera främjar demokratisering. Detta på grund av den ökade möjligheten att mobilisera medborgare i autokratier, en starkare kopplin
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det jordmagnetiska fältet kan till stor del (80-90%) beskrivas av ett dipolfält, producerat av en magnet i mitten av jorden med en lutning på 11° från rotationsaxeln. Magnetfältet genereras av konvektionsströmmar i den flytande järnrika yttre delen av kärnan i form av en jättelik dynamo, och tros ha varit aktivt sedan kärnan bildades för ungefär 4.5 miljarder år sedan. Palaeomagnetic studies of continuous geological archives and archaeological artefacts are required to reconstruct geomagnetic field changes beyond the range of historical observations. In this thesis I assess the reliability of sedimentary palaeomagnetic data and Holocene dipole field reconstructions. New palaeomagnetic records are presented from a maar crater lake in New Zealand and a post-glacia

The analysis focuses on the ways the capitalist crisis is presented in the context of Greece, as well as the ways that socio-political opposition to neolibe

The diffusion of mobile phones in low- and middle-income countries has taken place faster than any other infrastructural development. Mobile Midwife, a mobile application implemented in Ghana in 2010, sends timely messages in local languages to registered expectant mothers and new parents. The field of mobile health (mHealth) is severely underresearched, yet it can be an alternative for improving
In the age of globalization, local memories of past violence are often dislocated from their material places as remembrance is transpiring in transnational memory spaces. Historical events and commemorative memory practices increasingly transcend national boundaries and change the way memories of historical violence, atrocity, and genocide are represented in the transnational memoryscape.
