Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore, illustrate, and conceptualize how sustainability service is performed and the role it plays in the promotion of sustainable consumption. Design/methodology/approach – Theoretically, this paper takes a practice theory approach, conceptualizing the provision of sustainability service as a set of complex, socio-material, and performative practices.

The existing housing stock in the UK will make a significant contribution to national carbon emissions for many decades to come. Existing houses present a significant challenge to systemic upgrades because they are influenced by a disparate set of regulations, incentives, and stakeholders. Unlike the new build industry, there is no single set of standards to regulate and steer the energy performan

Vår forskning syftar till att förbättra hälsan för mödrar och spädbarn, både i Sverige och globalt. Vi fokuserar på att skapa jämlik tillgång till mödrahälsovård, höja vårdens kvalitet, driva innovation genom nya teknologier och stärka hälsosystem, särskilt i resursbegränsade miljöer. Kärnan i vårt arbete är att förstå hur mödrars hälsa och välbefinnande under graviditet och förlossning påverkar bOur research is dedicated to improving health outcomes for mothers and newborns, both in Sweden and globally. We focus on advancing equitable access to maternity care, enhancing the quality of maternal and newborn services, driving innovation through new technologies, and strengthening health systems, particularly in resource-limited settings. Central to our work is understanding how maternal heal

Industriell bearbetning av råmaterial till användbara material bidrar väsentligt till klimatförändringar, energianvändning och andra hållbarhetsfrågor. För att bli hållbar måste industrin snabbt förändras och förändras längs hela leveranskedjan. Detta är särskilt utmanande för energiintensiv industri som kännetecknas av långa investeringscykler, hög kolintensitet och hög handelsintensitet och somIndustrial processing of feedstock into usable materials significantly contributes to climate change, energy use and other sustainability concerns. To become sustainable, industry needs to rapidly transform and change all along the supply chain. This is especially challenging for energy intensive industry that is characterised by long investment cycles, high carbon intensity, and high trade inten

As automatic sensing and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) get cheaper, building monitoring data is easier to obtain. The abundance of data leads to new opportunities in the context of energy efficiency in buildings. This paper describes ongoing developments and first results of data-driven grey-box modelling for buildings. A Python toolbox is developed based on a Modelica library wit

Affymetrix GeneChip technology and quantitative real-time PCR (Q-PCR) were used to examine changes in gene expression in the adult murine substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) following lentiviral glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) delivery in adult striatum. We identified several genes that were upregulated after GDNF treatment. Among these, the gene encoding the transmembrane prot

Antibiotic resistance is currently an extensive medical challenge worldwide, with global numbers increasing steadily. Recent data have highlighted wastewater treatment plants as a reservoir of resistance genes. The impact of these findings for human health can best be summarized using a One Health concept. However, the molecular mechanisms impacting resistance spread have not been carefully evalua

This Bachelor's Thesis investigates whether China’s corruption effects on trade differ from the rest of the world’s. The question is raised by the seemingly positive correlation between corruption and imports – in direct contradiction to previous research, concluding the relationship to be negative. Two Gravity Models are evaluated using Panel EGLS (Cross-section random effects) regressions o

This thesis is a study of women in Belfast in two working-class ethno-national communities: Falls (Catholic/Nationalist/Republican) and Shankill (Protestant/Unionist/Loyalist). Theories of gendered nationalism and transversalism are used to analyze the material from a qualitative interview study. The study focuses on intersections of gender and nation: women’s identity as biological, cultural and

Efficient policy instruments for reducing the emission of greenhouse gases are essential for the realisation of a successful climate policy. General economic policy instruments have the potential for providing efficient emission reduction as they equalise marginal costs for emission reduction between different actors. They also provide incentives for a great variety of responses such as energy eff

Language is a social act and the fact that social communities create new or change existing words that are known in daily standard language, can make the lexicon difficult to comprehend for the ones not involved. The communication that belong to a specific social group can be classified as a jargon, and in this present study we look at gaming language as an example of how social communities’ lexic

In general, the word, photosynthesis, is considered synonymous with oxygenic photosynthesis, a process by which cyanobacteria, algae, aquatic, and terrestrial plants produce oxygen and carbohydrates, using light (photons), water and carbon dioxide. Further, we have anoxygenic bacterial photosynthesis where oxygen is not evolved, but a substrate, other than water, is oxidized, and rhodopsin-type sy
