… of fossil fuels is today the dominating source of energy. During combustion,carbon dioxide is formed. The carbon dioxide accumulates in the atmosphere,which raises the global average temperature on earth through the so called greenhouseeffect. The only way to reduce the …
En jämförande studie mellan två socioekonomiskt skilda bostadsområden, Araby och Söder i Växjö
… of anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases. The most important gas is carbon dioxide, which contributes with 80 per cent to the on going climate crisis. The increasing emissions of carbon dioxide are connected to human consumption patterns. This puts pressure on the earth …
The goal with this examination thesis is to investigate the difference in carbon dioxide emissions between a building with a wooden versus concrete carcassing from a life cycle perspective. The huge amounts of carbon dioxide released into air from human activities must be …
… conditions have been considered. The conclusion gives an account on savings of carbon dioxide emissions, energy, and capital. The capital savings will act as a foundation on which the size of investment will be proposed with the aid of economic calculations.The results show that …
… climate changes which are happening today. The boreal forest is representing a carbon sink and a buffert for the emissions that occurs. Changes in this ecosystem will for that reason contribute to major impact for the global carbon cycle. To study the impact of how elevated soil …
… more evidence suggest that the cause behind climate changes is an increase of carbondioxide into the atmosphere. The increase in turn is considerd to be an act of human activity. Therefore some companies have decided to become climate neutral and implement information technology …
växthusgaser, energi- och resursanvändning i modellstudie
… by adjusting control parameters such as aeration, internal recycle flow, carbon addition etc. Thus the same effluent load of ammonium and total nitrogen were reached for all scenarios compared to the reference. The simulated results showed that the total use of energy (most …
The Ethics of Emissions Trading
International regulations target a global reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions through the allocation of national reduction targets and the definition of mechanisms to achieve these targets. One of these mechanisms is international emissions trading, these trading …
Food consumption generates externalities such as carbon dioxide emissions, which contribute to global warming. The principal issue is that emissions are not covered by the "polluter pays principle". For this reason, new policy instruments need to be tested and implemented to …
effektivt styrmedel mot koldioxidutsläpp? : En studie av kostnadseffektivitet, transaktionskostnader och teknisk utveckling
Green public procurement (GPP) can be used as an instrument to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and consideration of environmental aspects within public procurement is becoming more common in Sweden and internationally. Two product groups that have been pointed out as especially …
… to reduce the impact on the climate. We have calculated the total amount of carbon dioxide and energy use for road models in different traffic classes. To do this we designed a calculation tool that calculates on the total amount of MWh used and the total amount of tons carbon …
… ecosystems have long been neglected as an important part of the global carbon cycle. However, research shows that most of the world’s lakes are net-heterotrophic and consequently emitters of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. In many boreal and north-temperate lakes, most of …
En analys av energibesparande åtgärder samt uppvärmnings- och kylsystems driftkostnader och koldioxidutsläpp
… and low temperate surface water cooling Energy use, operation costs and carbon dioxide emissions were calculated for the current heating systems and the three alternatives including cooling. The ground source heat pump for heating and cooling decreases bought energy with 34 MWh …
… The European Union has decided to introduce a system for tradable permits for carbon dioxide from year 2005 to reduce emissions and get experience in emission trade. The included companies are companies that provide district heating, oil refinery, factories that produce iron …
vad kommer att hända med morgondagens värld?
… The main cause is the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere - carbon dioxide in particular. The world is now aware of the problem and work to mitigate the changes and their effects has begun. The main objective is to significantly reduce global emissions of carbon …
