Net zero emission pledges by countries and companies are everywhere at the moment. Most of these pledges rely on massive amounts of carbon removal, yet details on how this will transpire remain largely absent. The COP26 agreement suggests that markets will play a central role, but there are significant problems with this approach. Carbon removal, also known as “negative emissions”, is the process

A few days after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the former Dutch Ambassador to Ukraine told BBC that his parents-in-law did not dare to go to a refugee shelter because they were afraid to contract Covid-19.

Economic conditions influence whether and when people choose to have children. A new report from the Swedish government inquiry A Future with Children, led by LUSEM economist Åsa Hansson, shows how financial risks – particularly for women – may be contributing to declining birth rates. Fewer children are being born in Sweden, and economic conditions may play a larger role than previously assumed.

Högutbildade föräldrar får nästan 30 procent mer personlig assistans till sina barn med funktionsnedsättning, än lågutbildade föräldrar. Skillnaderna kan bero på att lågutbildade föräldrar har svårare att navigera i systemet och driva igenom sina ärenden, vilket kan leda till ökade skillnader i hälsa och livskvalitet. Under det senaste decenniet har förändringar i regelverket inom LSS (lagen om st

A considerable reduction in the availability of electricity is expected this winter. If the electricity available is less than the demand for electricity, this results in what is known as a power shortfall. This could lead to short power cuts at the University. There is now a Vice-Chancellor’s decision that clarifies duties and responsibilities within the University in the event of a power shortfa

De nya blodproven för att diagnostisera Alzheimers sjukdom ger allt bättre möjligheter till tidig diagnos, men en utmaning är att markörerna som mäts förändras långt innan symtom utvecklas. Forskning ledd från Lunds universitet visar nu att en tidigare inte använd blodmarkör kan, när den kombineras med dagens blodmarkörer, betydligt minska risken för att personer får missvisande besked om sjukdom.
