1. 1. ACCESS TO URBAN COOL AND GREEN SPACES FOR OLD ADULTS IN GOTHENBURG – A GIS-BASED ANALYSIS OF RADIANT HEAT

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

   Författare :Robert Klein; [2023-01-19]
   Nyckelord :urban climate; heat stress; mean radiant temperature; SOLWEIG; urban vegetation; urban planning;

   Sammanfattning : Old adults are particularly vulnerable against heat stress. Considering the ageing society and the projected increase of heat events, planning for heat-resilient urban environments for old adults will become increasingly important. LÄS MER

3. 2. Economic development in a biodiversity hotspot: what is the jungle worth? : A case study of local understandings of forest use in North Sumatra

   Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

   Författare :Sydney Laewen; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Minor Field Study; Sustainable development; Economic development; Natural resource use; Biodiversity; Conservation; Discourse analysis;

   Sammanfattning : Sustainable development as our joint global goal is consensus in the mainstream international arena, in the name of long-term well-being for all living creatures. However economic constraints often limit the choices available to local communities, forcing them to make trade-offs between immediate socioeconomic gains and the long-term sustainability of natural resources.

4. 3. Hunting Hotspots - A framework to assess the effectiveness of using environmentally extended input-output models as a method to identify CO2-eq hotspots in the upstream supply chain of a company

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

   Författare :Elisa Anni Bauer; [2023]
   Nyckelord :GHG emissions; Effectiveness; Hotspot analysis; Environmentally Extended Input-Output; Sustainability Science; Social Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Industry’s indirect upstream greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions contribute significantly to climate change. To identify and reduce them, some companies conduct a hotspot analysis using an environmentally extended input-output (EEIO) model (often utilizing EXIOBASE database). LÄS MER
