Hemp has been used for textiles for a long time in history until it became illegal to grow in many countries in the 1930s. It is interesting from an environmental point of view because it doesn?t need any pesticides and in most locations it doesn?t need any irrigation either, compared to cotton, which normally requires big amounts of both pesticides and water for irrigation. Hemp is a bast fiber, which means that the fibers are located on the bast of the stem (on the outer layer of the stem). Therefore they cannot be spun directly, they have to be removed from the stem first.

AbstraktJag har tittat på hur arbetsbelastningen ser ut idag ombord på svenska tankfartyg. Arbetet har belyst inställningen till och respondenternas upplevda känslor vid tiden för vettinginspektionen, men också vad det skulle kunna leda till. Under praktiktiden genomfördes personliga intervjuer samt intervjuer via mejl, och har även använt mig av både kvalitativa och kvantitativa undersökningar. Utredningen har visat att respondenternas goda inställning till vettinginspektioner, mest oro före vettinginspektionen, förberedelserna väl genomförda, hur inspektörens agerande påverkar besättningen. Samt resultatet av utredningen har även visat att det existerar en viss övertid runt en vettinginspektion..

This essay covers the discussion of sovereignty on the one hand and humanitarian intervention on the other and responsibility to protect in between.

The aim of this thesis is to investigate and analyse the debate of ideas on gender equality policy during 1998 - 2011. The questions raised in this thesis are; which gender equality policy ideology has prevailed during 1998 - 2011, and which ideological orientation have the different ministers of gender equality expressed during the same period of time? I have conducted the study by analysing government publications and debate articles against a ideological framework consisting of different types of feminist theory. In order to get a result as representative as possible, I have only used the material from each of the ministers during their time in office. The research method that I have used when analyzing the material is qualitative text analysis.

Syftet med detta examensarbete var att analysera en del av det undervisningsmaterial som producerades i samband med Kemins År 2011 och empiriskt undersöka gymnasielärares syn på materialets användbarhet i gymnasieskolans kemiundervisning. Detta gjordes med hjälp av innehållsanalys, respektive en webbaserad enkät och uppföljande intervjuer. Min analys visar att materialet från Kemins År 2011 stämmer väl överens med syftet med kemiämnet enligt ämnesplanen i kemi för gymnasieskolan, och till stora delar med det centrala innehållet i kurserna Kemi 1 och Kemi 2. Det som kunde utvecklats mer var områdena analytisk kemi samt reaktionshastighet och kemisk jämvikt. Materialet stämmer även väl överens med elevers intressen, framförallt det som handlar om människokroppen. Kemikalendern relaterar till elevers intressen om aktuell forskning, medan de populärvetenskapliga artiklarna relaterar till elevers intressen om rymden och kemiska risker. En majoritet av gymnasielärarna i studien är positiva till att använda materialet från Kemins År 2011 i kemiundervisningen.

This essay focus on work related stress and psychosocial enviroment in working life. The purpose of this study is to present a detailed description of regulation of the the Occupational Safety and Health Act and investigate how well employees are being protected by the law.I will also explain with the help of statistic which employees that most often suffer from work related stress and the results is discussed from a gender perspective.Work related phycosocial health is a big issue in todays workplaces, and people who suffers from stress are supposed to be protecteded by the the Occupational Safety and Health Act, but is that really the truth?

At the same time the Occupational Safety and Health Act explains that the employer has a responsibility to take arrangement to prevent mental illness in working life.It?s mostly women who suffer from work related stress.

The aim of this review is to assess the ethical implications of aquaculture, regarding fish welfare and environmental aspects. The aquaculture industry has grown substantially the last decades, both as a result of the over-fishing of wild fish populations, and because of the increasing consumer demand for fish meat. As the industry is growing, a significant amount of research on the subject is being conducted, monitoring the effects of aquaculture on the environment and on animal welfare. The areas of concern when it comes to animal welfare have here been divided into four different stages: breeding period; growth period; capturing and handling; and slaughter. Besides these stages, this report includes a chapter on the current evidence of fish sentience, since this issue is still being debated among biologists.

The Arctic region is rich in natural resources such as oil, gas, minerals and fish. Climate change causes the Arctic ice melt, making resource extraction possible as well as opening up new transport routes through the Northwest Passage and the Northeast Passage. This has led to competition and cross-border strife among the Arctic States. The two largest states in the Arctic are Russia and Canada, which are also members of the Arctic Council. Russia and Canada are at the moment involved in several disputes regarding the Arctic territory where the ownership of the North Pole is one example.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka huruvida nyhetsreportaget som berättarform har förändrats i storstadstidningarna Dagens Nyheter och Göteborgs-Postens huvuddelar med avseende på utrymme och språkliga uttrycksformer mellan åren 2000 och 2011, under en vecka i mars och en vecka i oktober båda åren. Den undersökta tidsperioden är vald utifrån det formatbyte som många dagstidningar gick igenom på 2000-talet, Dagens Nyheter och Göteborgs-Posten bytte slutgiltigt format från det större broadsheet till tabloid år 2004. Undersökningen består huvudsakligen av en kvalitativ metod, en massmedieretorisk analysmetod, men även en kvantitativ del där antalet reportage under tidsperioden räknades och bidrog till en helhetsbild av materialet.Undersökningen visar att antalet nyhetsreportage i de valda tidningarna minskat med cirka 30 procent 2011 jämfört med år 2000 enligt min definition. Reportagen delades in i två för ändamålet självdefinierade kategorier, hel- och halvreportage, beroende på hur mycket reportagekaraktär texterna hade. Undersökningen visade en minskning av nyhetsreportagen med en högre reportagekaraktär år 2011 jämfört med år 2000.
