Utvärdering av byggsektorns miljöbedömningssystem BASTA
AbstractIn the fall of 2003 a project was started in the Swedish building sector that is called BASTA (the building sectors’ termination of especially harmful substances). The project is operated by the building companies NCC, Skanska, PEAB and JM, the Swedish Building Industry and the Swedish Environmental Institute IVL. The purpose of the project is to create a common environmental assessment system for the entire building industry and with the help of this system phase out the use of especially harmful properties from building products.In a large sense BASTA works like this; On the BASTA web site there is a database, to which a supplier can register the company and the company’s products. Only those products with a substance content that fulfil the demands of the BASTA system, is to be registered. As it is the supplier himself that carries out the registration of the company and the company’s products to the system, the BASTA-organisation annually controls that the companies that are registered in the database, fulfils BASTA’s demands.Since NCC is one of the companies that operates BASTA, BASTA is probably going to be the environmental assessment system that is recommended for the company in the future.
Textilindustrins avloppsvatten och avloppsslam ur ett miljöperspektiv : Underlag för internationella riktlinjer inom projektet Sweden Textile Water Initiative
The aim of my thesis is to obtain knowledge of textile wastewater and textile sludge from an environmental perspective, which can be used as a basis for the ?Sweden Textile Water Initiative? guidelines for a sustainable sludge management. In my study I have mainly focused on textile dyes, salts and metals and their routes during wastewater treatment.This paper is partly a literature review, which I began by identifying the pollutants discharged from each textile process. Then I studied wastewater and sludge quality, environmental aspects, possible treatment and recycling methods. I have also tried to find existing type of guidelines in order to make comparisons.
Affekter för hållbarhet
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka vilka samband det finns mellan
värderingar, föreställningar och normer kring miljön till agerande för
ekologisk hållbarhet i det vardagliga livet. Vår hypotes var att det finns
samband mellan affekter kring miljöns framtid och agerande till hållbar
utveckling. För att söka svar på syftet och bekräfta hypotesen har enkäter med
frågor gällande individens värderingar, föreställningar och normer om miljön
samt frågor om miljömässigt agerande skickats ut via e-post till 119 deltagare
i åldern 23-65 år. Svarsfrekvensen var på 59 procent. Resultatet visade att det
fanns ett flertal starka samband mellan miljömässiga värderingar,
föreställningar och normer till individens agerande och hypotesen om att det
fanns samband mellan affekter och agerande för hållbar utveckling verifierades.
Visuellt berättande i spelmiljöer
Abstrakt
I den här uppsatsen undersöks hur ett narrativ kan drivas inom digitala spel
enbart med hjälp av spelmiljön. Syftet är att få förståelse för vad
miljöberättande behärskar som en självständig form av berättande och vad
författarna kan göra för att uppnå detta mål. För att undersöka problemområdet
genomfördes en spelproduktion där metoder framtagna under undersökningens gång
applicerades. Produktionen testades av utomstående studenter i medieteknik och
resultaten sammanställdes med reflektioner kring vad som uppnåtts och de
metoder som applicerats. Undersökningen beskriver arbetsprocessen och metoder
och visar hur dessa kan driva ett narrativ med en spelmiljö.
Abstract
In this thesis examines how to drive a narrative in digital games using only
the game environment.

Ekosystemtjänster : En studie av kunskapsläge, hinder och strategier inom kommunal förvaltning
?Ecosystem services are the ecosystems direct and indirect contributions of ecosystems to human well-being.? In order to reach the generation target and the environmental objectives it is important to increase the awareness of biodiversity and ecosystem services and it?s importance to human welfare and simultaneously highlighting the value of ecosystem services. The value of ecosystem services should be integrated into economic standpoints, political considerations and other decisions in the society.

Information Audit inom Svenskt Näringsliv : en fallstudie av hur organisationen Svenskt Näringsliv hanterar sina informationsresurser
Today every organization is committed to some kind of environmental scanning in order to get necessary knowledge of the world around them. The acquisition, organization and storage of information in combination with a strategic use, is today an important factor for a successful organisation in any sector of our society.In this Master thesis I have studied how an organisation such as The Confederation of Swedish Enterprise (Svenskt Näringsliv) handles its information resources. I have also looked at the flow of information within the organization. The Confederation of Swedish Enterprise is Sweden?s largest business federation representing 50 member organizations and 55 000 member companies.
PLASTHANTERINGEN I SVERIGE En kvalitativ studie om storstadskommunernas plasthantering utifr?n EU:s Plastdirektiv (EU) 2019/904
The aim of this essay is to examine the handling of plastic waste on a local level in the three
municipalities of Gothenburg, Malm? and Stockholm. This is achieved with the help of
guidance within the theory of Multi-level Governance. By applying the EU directive
2019/904, about disposable plastic, and examining the global plastic problem, the efforts to
promote sustainable use, and recycling of plastic, is analyzed. The method involves a
qualitative content analysis, where the 2022 waste plans of the three municipalities, ?Sveriges
handlingsplan f?r plast? by the Government Office, and the 2019/904 EU directive constitutes
the base of the study.
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) - en väg mot ökad uthållighet? : en studie av Ramsjö gård
Over the past one hundred years, there has been an increasing globalization and
industrialization of the food systems. As a result, the distance between the production and the consumption of food has increased, both in time and space and in the minds of
people. There is also an increasing concern for the environmental effects of industrial
farming and the long distance transportation of food.
Sustainable agriculture and efforts to build more sustainable food systems has emerged in
opposition to the global food market. The definitions of sustainability usually include
environmental, social and economical aspects. To build more localized food systems is
seen as one way towards increased sustainability.
Geometri, språk och idealitet : en studie av Geometrins ursprung av Husserl med fokus på geometrin som idealiserat objekt mellan intersubjektivitet och skriftspråklighet
This thesis is basically an attempt to discuss the intrinsic intersubjective nature of the so-called ideal sciences, i.e. geometry or arithmetic. Based upon a thorough analysis of Husserls The Origin of Geometry and Derridas Edmund Husserl's Origin of Geometry: an Introduction this thesis takes geometry as an example of an ideal science. The main question of the thesis is how an ideal science or object is constituted. The thesis consist of two main chapters - ?Geometry and Historicity? and ?Language?- and a concluding discussion.
