1. Reflective equilibrium applied in practice: Identifying climate migration environmental drivers in Guatemala for the further prioritization of Loss and Damage strategies
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The climate crisis has forced vulnerable countries in the Global South, such as Guatemala, to migrate. This study has two main focuses. The first one is identifying the region's most critical environmental mobility drivers. LÄS MER
2. The Nuclear Option : A Global Sustainability Appraisal of Civil Nuclear Energy
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : Energy production systems are essential for human progress. They fuel the technologies that underpin economic growth and are prerequisite for efficient food production, education and healthcare. On the flip side, they also incur substantial eco-social costs.

3. Risk management in global supply chains : A review based on the impact of COVID-19
Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/ProduktionsekonomiSammanfattning : Global supply chains (GSCs) are formed with the primary objective of cost minimization. Apart from cost reductions, GSCs also have other benefits like opening up new markets, reduction in the price of the product sold, and increasing production capacity. The benefits of GSCs are significant only when the environment it works in is stable. LÄS MER
4. Catalytic hydrotreating of lignin
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : One of the main challenge’s society faces today is climate change caused by CO2 due to the de-pendence on fossil fuels. To combat the increasing CO2 levels there is a need to develop renewable fuels. One such fuel could potentially be derived from lignin. In this thesis, lignin derived from a pulp and paper mill was first treated and cleaned. LÄS MER
