6. Life Cycle Assessment : a comparison of fossil energy use and climate impact on small scale manufacturing and large scale conventional manufacturing of textile toys
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Energy and TechnologySammanfattning : This study conducts a Life Cycle Assessment to compare the environmental impacts, specifically climate impact and fossil fuel use, of textile toys produced in China and Sri Lanka. Through evaluating large-scale industrial production in China against small-scale, handcrafted production in Sri Lanka, it identifies the considerable environmental footprint of cotton production in both scenarios.

7. Are consumers inattentive to fuel saving for Electric Vehicles? A stated choice experiment
D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomiSammanfattning : The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is a crucial component of the global green transition within the transport sector, where EVs are often characterized by higher initial costs. This study investigates whether enhancing the salience of fuel savings information influences consumer decisions towards EVs, amidst criticisms of manufacturers like Tesla for leveraging such information in marketing strategies.

8. Energy efficiency and fiscal incentives : A stochastic frontier analysis of Swedish manufacturing sectors 2008-2020
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/NationalekonomiSammanfattning : This thesis is a case study of the Swedish manufacturing industry in which I measure how efficiently each sector uses energy (fuel and electricity) as input goods in their production processes, and how significant the impact of Sweden’s energy tax is in regard to energy efficiency. The purpose of this is to analyze energy security and preparedness for short-term demand shocks for electricity, as many ‘mega-investments’ of industrial nature are being planned in Sweden – which are predicted to require the installed capacity of Sweden’s electricity production to almost double by 2045.

9. Kartläggning av krisberedskapen på nötkreatursgårdar i Uppland : en intervjustudie av lantbrukares uppfattningar om sårbarheter och styrkor i beredskapen på mjölk- och köttgårdar
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesSammanfattning : Primärproduktionen, där animalieproduktion är en del, behöver kunna fortgå trots störningar så som mer extrema väderförhållanden med långdragen torka eller kraftiga skyfall, större sjukdomsutbrott eller i värsta fall väpnad konflikt. Idisslare har en viktig roll i vår livsmedelsförsörjning men i dagsläget vet vi väldigt lite om hur den enskilda gården skulle påverkas vid olika samhällsstörningar. LÄS MER
10. When Flying is Inevitable : How international companies and business travelers can contribute to the transformation towards a future of sustainable aviation
Master-uppsats, KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)Sammanfattning : This thesis emerged from a question that had been repeating itself in my head for a long period of time: If myself and the rest of the world face the fact that we are likely to keep flying for years to come for reasons somehow considered valid, how can we at the same time still contribute efficiently to achieving a more sustainable future of aviation? Based on this dilemma and focusing on the factor of impact, an actor with the power of creating a larger impact than a single individual was firstly identified. This actor also provides the perspective used in this thesis. LÄS MER
