The awareness regarding environmental issues is increasing and as a result a large number of products are eco-labeled. This enables the consumers to make enlightened environmental decisions when purchasing products. Eco-labeling is no longer for products only, but also for services like hotels. It?s difficult to determine what it actually means to eco-label a hotel and what kind of benefits it includes.

SyfteVårt syfte med uppsatsen är att skapa en djupare förståelse för problematiken ochmöjligheterna som finns gällande klädföretags arbete med miljövänliga kläder. För attuppnå detta på ett effektivt sätt har vi tagit fram två delsyften. Vi ämnar analysera ochundersöka:? Vilka faktorer som påverkar konsumenters intresse för miljövänliga kläder.? Hur marknadskommunikationen av miljövänliga kläder kan vara utformad föratt tilltala konsumenterna.Vidare har en forskningsfråga tagits fram som lyder:? På vilka sätt kan klädföretag arbeta med grön marknadsföring för att ökaintresset för miljövänliga kläder?MetodVi har utgått från den kvalitativa undersökningsmetoden då vi ville uppnå endjupgående förståelse för vårt valda forskningsområde samt ha möjligheten att görasubjektiva analyser och tolkningar. Det empiriska materialet samlades in genom sjudjupgående intervjuer.

This bachelor-level thesis in historical osteology deals with several aspects of the life-cycle of an RomanIron Age farm in southern Scania. Excavated in the 1980's by Lars Larsson, the farm was located near aplace called Långåker in the Dybäck area, on a cape which stretched out into a minor bog. Our work concerns why the Iron Age people settled the area, how well fragmented bone survives in a bog, what they produced at the farm and how life on the farm finally ended. From the roughly 10 % of the total number of fragments we where able to identify we can conclude, that he species that are present of the farm areusual Iron Age species (dog, sheep/goat, cattle and swine). We also have a relitivly large number of wildanimals in our material (2%).

Under 2010 brann ett så kallat lekland ner i Borlänge. Brandförloppet var snabbt och kritiska förhållanden för utrymning infann sig inom kort tid. Det var ett fåtal besökare på leklandet och alla klarade sig oskadda. Lekland är ofta byggda i gamla industri- eller affärslokaler och innehåller ofta stora lekställningar av stålkonstruktion med stora mängder plast i rutschbanor, fallskydd och andra detaljer..Syftet med rapporten är att belysa problem som kan uppstå vid utrymning av lekland. Delar i detta består i att undersöka barns beteende vid utrymning, möjlig brand i lekland och möjligheter till dimensioneringen av lekland.I denna rapport studeras två olika lekland.

En kontinuerlig ökning av tillgängligheten till Internet har lett till att flera ärenden som tidigare utfördes utanför hemmet, såsom inköp av böcker, filmer och kläder, nu även sker online. Det finns idag även flera företag som erbjuder tjänster för att signera dokument elektroniskt. Jag har i detta examensarbete valt att studera arbetsflödet för just elektronisk signering.Studien är fokuserad på företaget Comfacts lösning där de använder SMS i identifieringsprocessen. De olika stegen användarna går igenom för att signera dokument är otydliga. Genom att studera arbetsflödet för Comfacts elektroniska signering hoppas jag bringa kunskap i hur man kan utforma flödet så användarna förstår processen och upplever signeringen som enkel och smidig.Förstudien bestod av en heuristisk utvärdering av tjänsten, en konkurrentanalys av liknande tjänster samt användbarhetstester.

Changes in the climate and the environment are largely consequences of human influences. Resources are given to teach adults about the environment. However, there are problems in focusing on adults because it is difficult to influence people when they already have created a lifestyle. We have instead chosen to focus on teaching children about changes in the climate and the consequences of this.Many of the toys available on the market today encourage children to consume. Luxury cars and dolls with hundreds of accessories are often made of materials that has have a negative effect on the environment.Another problem we often encountered during the year is the declining interest in technology and science.

During the last couple of years the focus for many businesses have moved from just being price oriented to include such factors as quality, flexibility, service, delivery precision and environmentally friendliness. The shift in viewpoint arises from the increasingly competition on the market and the hard economic atmosphere. It has become more important to differentiate the company and its products to be able to increase market share. The purpose with this master?s thesis was to get a better understanding on how companies (customer to DHL) are reasoning and prioritizing when choosing Swedish carriers.

During the period of occupation of Norway between the years 1940-1945 the National Lutheran Church took the responsibility of supporting the Norweigans in their ideological battle against the Nazis. This was a period named Holdningskampen in Norwegian history. One person to remember was Eivind Berggrav, bishop in Oslo diocese. He was the one responsible for the theological document of importance Kirkens Grunn that became important as a document against the Nazis and the small percentage of Christians that related to the naziinspired-church. Berggrav was also one of the founders of Den Midlertidlige Kirkeledelsen, the organisation responsible for the non-nazified churches.

Individer i samhället bär ansvaret för att bevara en hållbar konsumtion och göra bättre val som främjar naturens resurser. Detta kan fördelaktigt nås genom köp av produkter som är bättre för miljön. Det är dock viktigt att företagen som säljer dessa, tydliggör de miljömässiga budskapen till kunderna. Att marknadsföra varor på internet kan anses vara effektivt för att nå ut till en stor mängd. En låg reklameffektivitet kan dock påverka verksamhetens försäljningsintäkter och företaget bör därför beakta hur digital marknadsföring kan användas på ett effektivt sätt. Utifrån tidigare forskning har brister identifierats, gällande avgörande aspekter i samband med marknadsföring av miljövänliga produkter på internet.

Glulam?s position at the Swedish market for building constructions has been established over the past decades. Factors affecting glulam demand are found both in global and national contexts as well in customer attitudes and knowledge of the material. Arguments for environmentally friendly and sustainable construction processes and energy-efficient designs are nowadays common, which is something that should motivate increased usage of wood as a renewable material. For the glulam industry to increase its sales, improve profitability and thereby gain market share in present competitive climate, reliable market information and updated market intelligence is required.

Road transports stand for a great part of Sweden?s total CO2-emissions. Transports are expected to increase over the coming years, and with those the emissions. A greater environmental awareness leads to increased demands for environmentally friendly transport. The aim of this thesis is to study the consequences of changing transportation modes from road to railway.
