Principen ”barnets bästa” ska alltid styra när rättvisan har att göra med barn, från vårdnadstvister till bestraffning av minderåriga. Men ny forskning från rättssociologen i Lund visar att den högtflygande moraliska ansatsen ofta landar platt. Barnkonventionen – svensk lag sedan 2020 – är tydlig: barn har rätt att komma till tals i frågor som rör dem själva och ”barnets bästa” ska vara avgörande.

Effekterna av ett varmare Arktis är inte enbart av negativ betydelse för klimatet, visar en ny avhandling från Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap. Genom modellering kunde man bland annat se att en förflyttning av trädgränsen uppåt kunde öka kollagret då träd binder mer kol i sin biomassa än tundraväxter. Men resultaten är osäkra. Arktis – området norr om polcirkeln – värms upp minst dubbelt så
