As more and more companies are realizing the importance to integrate sustainability with their economic prosperity development, Triple Bottom Line functions as companies' Polaris to guide them to incorporate "People, Planet" considerations into their "Profit" seeking goal. Corporate social responsibility initiatives are adopted by many companies. Among them, Cause Related M

Version 3 av ecoinvent är den första databasen att erbjuda möjligheten att koppla samman livscykelinventeringar (LCI) utefter olika länkningsalgoritmer. Genom dessa länkningsalgoritmer tar ecoinvent nu fram bakgrundslivscykelinventeringar med både medeldata och långsiktig marginaldata (t.ex. över elmarknader i olika länder). Idealt sett representerar långsiktig marginaldata över elmarknader den ytVersion 3 of the ecoinvent database is the first background database to offer the possibility to link life cycle inventories (LCI) according to different linking algorithms. Using those algorithms, ecoinvent now provides both average and long-term, marginal background LCI data, (e.g. for electricity markets for different countries). Long-term, marginal data for electricity markets ideally represen

Popular Abstract in Swedish Diabetes är en grupp sjukdomar som alla kännetecknas av en förhöjd nivå av sockerarten glukos i blodet. Antalet individer som drabbas av diabetes ökar hela tiden, en utveckling som ses över hela världen. Bara i Sverige har drygt 5% av befolkningen diagnosen diabetes, motsvarande 484.400 personer i åldern 20-79 år. Typ 2 diabetes är den vanligaste formen av diabetes, ochThe incidence of diabetes is increasing worldwide, with the most prevalent form being type 2 diabetes. Two fundamental processes contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes: insulin resistance in target organs and insufficient insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta-cells. The aim of this thesis was to explore the role of DNA methylation and common genetic variation on glucose metabolism a

Under de senaste 10 åren har ökningen av export från EU av farligt och ”ofarligt” avfall varit betydande. Rapporter visar att en övervägande del av EU:s el-avfall och elektroniska avfall exporteras till Asien och Afrika. ”Ofarligt” avfall, såsom plast och papper, transporteras främst till Asien och i synnerhet till Kina. I dessa länder finns emellertid ofta inte kapaciteten och tekniken att hanter

In hydrological models for water resources management and planning, the model output or design quantities are functions of the input data and a number of parameters that are essentially stochastic processes or random variables. The task of uncertainty analysis is to estimate the uncertainty characteristics of the model output in terms of the uncertainties in the input, model parameters and initial

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nästan en miljon nya fall av magsäckscancer diagnostiseras årligen världen över. Även om frekvensen har fallit dramatiskt de senaste åren så är magsäckscancern fortfarande den näst vanligaste orsaken till död i cancer sett ur ett världsperspektiv. Den geografiska variationen av denna cancertyp är anmärkningsvärd med den högsta förekomsten i asiatiska länder såsom Japan,

Based on trend, cross-cutting relationships and U-Pb dating, Precambrian mafic dykes in the Singhbhum craton, earlier collectively identified as ‘Newer Dolerite Swarm’ have been separated into seven distinct swarms, which are thought to be the plumbing systems for Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs). These Singhbhum swarms range in age from ∼2.80 Ga to ∼1.76 Ga, and include the ∼2.80 Ga NE-SW trending

Eddy covariance (EC) measurements are often used to validate net ecosystem productivity (NEP) estimated from satellite remote sensing data and biogeochemical models. However, EC measurements represent an integrated flux over their footprint area, which usually differs from respective model grids or remote sensing pixels. Quantifying the uncertainties of scale mismatch associated with gridded flux

Between 15 and 27kyrb2k (thousands of years before 2000CE) during the last glacial, Greenland experienced a prolonged cold stadial phase, interrupted by two short-lived warm interstadials. Greenland ice-core calcium data show two periods, preceding the interstadials, of anomalously high atmospheric dust loading, the origin of which is not well understood. At approximately the same time as the Gree

BACKGROUND: Gout is an inflammatory arthritis manifesting as acute episodes of severe joint pain and swelling, which can progress to chronic tophaceous or chronic erosive gout, or both. Here, we present the most up-to-date global, regional, and national estimates for prevalence and years lived with disability (YLDs) due to gout by sex, age, and location from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries

BACKGROUND: Obesity, assessed by body mass index (BMI), is an established risk factor for 13 cancers. We aimed to identify further potential obesity-related cancers and to quantify their association with BMI relative to that of established obesity-related cancers.METHODS: Using Cox regression models on 4,142,349 individuals in Sweden (mean age 27.1 years at weight measurement), we calculated hazar

Popular Abstract in Swedish POPULÄRVETENSKAPLIG SAMMANFATTNING PÅ SVENSKA Kadmium är en giftig metall vilken finns i mat som vi rekommenderas äta mycket av, exempelvis sädesprodukter, grönsaker och skaldjur. Våra matjordar är kontaminerade med kadmium och föroreningen kommer att kvarstå under mycket lång tid framöver. Kadmium skadar framförallt njurarna och skelettet och kan antagligen även orsaAbstract: Cadmium (Cd) is ubiquitous in the environment. Human exposure in non-smokers occurs mainly via intake of healthy food like vegetables, cereals, and shellfish. Adverse health effects on kidney and bone at low-level environmental Cd exposure are well-documented in adults. There is considerable inter-individual variation in both metabolism (toxicokinetics) and toxicity (toxicodynamics) of C

Ett för miljörätten tidigt uppkommet styrmedel som idag hyllas är miljökonsekvensbeskrivningen. Flertalet länder har infört MKB i sin lagstiftning och det har utformats internationella bestämmelser för gränsöverskridande miljöpåverkan. Även inom klimatregimen finns reglering för projekt i CDM systemet. I detta arbete har Sveriges CDM projekt studerats för att fastställa syfte med MKB inom CDM systA respected and early invention among the means of control in environmental law is the impact assessment. Numerous countries have implemented EIA in their national legislation and international treaties regulates transboundary environmental impacts. UNFCCC also contains EIA regulations for projects within the clean development mechanism. In this study Swedish projects are examined to establish the
