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.

Student recruitment is a subject that seems to be forgotten in the theory of event communication. Yet the area has some specific reoccurring features. Our purpose was to examine these specific features and how to work with these in the best way, and also see how to get the most out of the event communication to the young at event and fairs. Special features we have looked at are the student ambassadors ands their impact, the meaning of a give-away and also if there are any essential factors to get in contact with the young at fairs and events, and if new technology had an important role to play in the area.Our research has been inductive, and therefore, we have created our own theory and reflected it to the larger topic of event communication and its theories. Our research method has been triangular, both quantitative and qualitative; interviews with those who work with student recruitment, and surveys to young people in upper secondary school.Our study showed the importance of student ambassadors and their specific task to be nice, friendly and outgoing.

There is a clear difference between the way football players and leaders regard the role of the referee, compared to the way the refereeing body looks at it. The refereeing body regard themselves as fundamental for the existence of the sport, while the other mentioned parties merely see them as functional justice makers. This view places the referees outside the field of football. This establishes a football culture, which is conflicted when it comes to the role of the referees on the field. The conflict comes to its edge in youth football, where the referees are under severe pressure.

To gain knowledge about how teenagers view their own consumption of alcohol we have used the Grounded Theory.

This work examines the students´ thoughts on climate change with a focus on carbondioxid through photosynthesis and the carbon emissions from cars. The study is based on two subject areas, one with a focus on enhanced greenhouse effect, and the other focusing on photosythesis. The survey was conducted by means of qualitative interviews with students in grades four and six. The results describe that student´s understanding for photosynthesis and the carbondioxids function for photosynthesis doesn´t change significantly from grade four to grade six. I have divided the students inte three levels based on their understandingof the various fields, and their use of adequate concepts.

This thesis is composed within the framework of the supplementary course in psychotherapy concentrating on family therapy (60 credits) arranged by Lund University's affiliate in Västerås, Sweden.The purpose of this thesis has been to explore how the idea to initiate evidence based methods in the workings of the Individual and Family Care Department of the City of Västerås was born. Furthermore the thesis will explore if consideration for methods of theoretical implementation are implied. The study assumes a qualitative attempt and is based on semi-structured interviews from three levels within the organization, including both management and operation.Theories on organization,implementation and the theory on change strategies have been used as a theoretical starting point.The study result shows that introduction of evidence based methods in the City of Västerås is based on the experiences of the organization regarding the need to develop and increase social services contributions to non-institutional care. Experiences from expensive transferrals to institutions which only occasionally produced satisfactory results were a contributing factor. New published research and a strong interest and desire inside the department to improve and change social services contributions have naturally been a positive influence for the development.

The analysis provides tools for examining decision methods and preference changes.

Bakgrund och problem: Att hållbarhetsrapporternas trovärdighet påverkar intressenternasförtroende är särskilt aktuellt för företag i finansbranschen. För att hjälpa företag att uppnå störretrovärdighet i hållbarhetsredovisningar lägger GRI:s fjärde generation av riktlinjerna en stor viktpå väsentlighet i rapporternas innehåll. Det som antas möjliggöra vassare hållbarhetsrapporterenligt GRI:s G4-version är en stegvis beskrivning av hur väsentlighetsanalys ska göras. GRI:s nyaoch föregående versioner skiljer sig dock inte åt när det gäller vilka faser väsentlighetsanalysenska bestå av. Trots det finns det några svenska finansföretag som redan har försökt uppfylla G4:sstörre krav på väsentlighet eller visar en förståelse för vad övergången från redovisningen enligtGRI:s tredje generation till G4 innebär för finansföretagens hållbarhetsredovisningar.Syfte: Studien syftar till att skapa förståelse för hur GRI:s fjärde generation av riktlinjernapåverkar hållbarhetsredovisningar hos svenska finansföretag.Metod: Den kvalitativa studien genomförs med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer medpersoner som på något sätt är relaterade till hållbarhetsredovisning inom sju olika svenskafinansföretag.
