Today's climate and environmental issues have now been up for discussion for quite long. Various environmental measures have been taken, but it is not always certain that those measures actually are for the better because of the complexity of our environment. Therefore, studies of whole life cycles are very important even if they are time and resource intensive.Real estate accounts for 15% of global carbon emissions, but also affects our environment in many other aspects. In Sweden this number is even higher. About 30 % of its carbon dioxide emissions originates from building sector and changes are therefore of great importance.

Internprissättning är priser på varor eller tjänster som levereras mellan enheter inom ett större företag. Det visar sig att interna priser kan göra det möjligt för ett företag att mer effektivt styra företaget mot de gemensamma målen. En debiteringsmodell kan användas för att koppla interndebitering till en utförd leverans där en skriftlig begäran skickas elektronisk till mottagaren med besked om belopp och vart pengarna ska betalas. Priset som anges är antingen baserat utifrån en prislista som uppdateras kontinuerligt eller beräknas omgående och fastställs per beställning. Genom att bygga in servicenivåer i en debiteringsmodell kan beställningsbeteende inom intern logistik ändras genom att chefer gör beställare medvetna om hur deras val påverkar produktionsenhetens ekonomi. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka huruvida en debiteringsmodell för intern transport kan förändra beställningsbeteenden och sänka kostnader för intern logistik.

With the elevated oil prices of today it is necessary to look for other heating alternatives. If the oil price continues to develop in the same way it has done the last years it will soon be impossible for many producing garden companies to survive. The purpose of this diploma work is to compare three different fuel options in order to find the most economic one considering the conditions of Katrinebergs Handelsträdgård AB. In relation to oil it is profitable to change to any of the three alternatives: wood chips, wood pellets and grain. The most profitable option is to change to wood chips. This alternative has a payoff time less than three years and after that the annual saving compared to the oil is relatively high. The annual cost is 65 % of the cost of the oil alternative.

Den internationella handeln med hästar och hästprodukter samt de internationella tävlingstillfällena ökar stadigt. Detta leder till att den globala transporten av hästar ökar vilket i sin tur ger en förhöjd risk för spridning av sjukdomar och infektionsämnen. Några av dessa infektionsämnen är afrikansk hästpest, ekvin influensa och ekvin virusarterit. Afrikansk hästpest är endemisk i östra och centrala Afrika, den sprids med hjälp av mygg av arten Culicoides spp. Det har setts att sjukdomen kan spridas mellan länder exempelvis vid import av zebror. Det finns ingen behandling mot afrikansk hästpest, men det finns vaccin.

Detta arbete syftar till att få en bild av hur delar av bioenergimarknaden kan se ut. Vad styr priset och vad är bra att veta om man funderar över att sälja energigrödor eller biobränslen till ett blivande eller befintligt kraftvärmeverk. I den här undersökningen har jag valt att avgränsa mig till halm och flis. Det visar sig att transport och val av hantering är de kritiska punkterna för ekonomin. För halmbalar är transport med lastbil och tåg det lönsammaste alternativet och skiljer sig marginellt vid de olika transportavstånden.

The idea is to contrast the pragmatics of the Swedish education system with the theories of Rousseau and Comenius.

The state recognises the potential of public education but also its dangers and therefore becomes very active in forming not only the education system as a hole but also its pedagogic.

I norra London startade, den sjätte augusti 2011, ett av de största upploppen i modern tid. Syftet med denna teoretiska uppsats är att - inspirerat av londonupploppen - diskutera olika teoretiska sätt att förklara och förstå händelserna ifråga, med särskild fokus på relationen mellan strukturellt och direkt våld. Styrande teman är socialt utanförskap, skam och vanmakt. Analysen indikerar att det sociala utanförskap som strukturellt våld och relativ deprivation skapar är grogrunden för vanmakt och skam ? två känslor som är intimt förknippade med direkt våld.
