Nyckelaktörer i samhället tror att invånare är dåligt förberedda inför avbrott i el, värme, vatten och telekom, något som en enkätstudie riktad mot Helsingborgs invånare bekräftar. Framför allt sårbara är invånare för avbrott i el och vattentillförsel, vilket majoriteten vill ska prioriteras vid avbrott som inträffar samtidigt. Samhällsaktörers bedömning av hur väl invånare kan hantera avbrotten sCritical infrastructures and the services they provide society with, also called critical flows, are vital for the functioning of modern society.

For added environmental benefits, surplus biomass from the agricultural industry which currently does not have any high-value applications can be used for production of chemicals. This master thesis is written as a part of the tech-no-economic analysi

Denna uppsats behandlar den förhållandevis oklara skatterättsliga regleringen av näringsverksamheters avdrag för sponsrings- och klimatkompensationsutgifter. Oklarheterna kan antas påverka skattskyldigas incitament för att ge sådana bidrag och därmed motverka uppfyllandet av Sveriges klimatmål. Uppsatsen utreder också hur HFD har gått och ska gå till väga vid sin tolkning och tillämpning av reglerThis thesis investigates the rather unclear tax regulation regarding expenses for sponsorship and climate compensation.

Vi ser i Bibeln hur människan, naturen och Gud var tätt förbundna. I den kontext som Bibeln befinner sig i är relationen mellan människan och naturen en självklar del av vardagen. Människan levde i symbios med naturen och var helt beroende av denna för sin överlevnad. Naturen var den som gav människan mat men också den som hade makten att förgöra henne. I och med industrialiseringen och kapitalismIn this paper the relationship between nature and humanity will be examined by looking into the theological language of the ecotheological tradition and the tradition of pilgrimage in the Church of Sweden. In a time when humanity has long since taken a place above nature and often sees herself as a ruler and in full control of nature, a new problem becomes visible; climate change. The way humans h

The present thesis aims at applying a set of verification tests and validation testing suitable for WUI-NITY with a foc

Anläggnings- och byggbranschen står för cirka 20% av Sveriges totala utsläpp av växthusgaser. Därför krävs det stora förändringar för att uppnå de uppsatta klimatmålen till år 2045, vilket innebär att Sverige ska ha så låga utsläpp av växthusgaser till atmosfären som möjligt, för att därefter uppnå negativa utsläpp, där insamling av växthusgaser från atmosfären överskrider vad som släpps ut i atmoTo achieve a society with sustainable development, the use of valuable non-renewable resources, i.e., the crude oil used for bituminous binder and aggregates must be changed. Meanwhile, the road network is expanding worldwide, requiring more recourses. The asphalt concrete can be recycled up to 100% after being removed from an existing road pavement, which ensures the sustainability of the asphalt
