Detta examensarbete har som måSince 2017, electric scooters have become an increasingly common means of transportation in urbanized cities across Sweden for cover short mileage.

I ett hållbart samhälle är tillgänglighet en viktig förutsättning för alla, oavsett deras bakgrund. Det finns olika komponenter som ingår inom begreppet tillgänglighet.

Sammanfattning Under 1960-talet kunde vetenskapsmän konstatera att en generell uppvärmning av atmosfären resulterade i klimatförändringar. En av källorna till den globala uppvärmningen var och är fortfarande den höga koncentrationen av växthusgaser i atmosfären som uppstår genom mänsklig aktivitet vid förbränning av fossila bränslen. Trots den vetskapen dröjde det en bit in på 2000-talet innan kliSummary In the 1960’s scientists discovered that general heating of the atmosphere or global warming results in climate change. One of the reasons behind global warming is the high concentration of green house gases in the atmosphere, which is a bi-product of fossil fuel combustion caused by human activity. Climate change did not become a European Union priority before the 21st century when the c
