  1. 6. Resource efficient products in a circular economy – The case of consumables. From environmental and resource assessment to design guidelines

    Författare :Siri Willskytt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; product characteristics; circular product design; resource efficiency; LCA; consumable products; ecodesign; design guidelines; circular economy;

    Sammanfattning : The circular economy (CE) is a concept to challenge the unsustainable production, consumption, and waste management of products, through the recirculation of resources and products through various means while reducing environmental impact. Within this concept, many measures are recommended for reducing environmental impact and resource use. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Social learning in the Anthropocene : Governance of natural resources in human dominated systems

    Författare :Björn Nykvist; Jon Norberg; Marianne Krasny; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; social learning; multi-level governance; resilience; adaptability; natural resource management; institutions; policy making; impact assessments; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Sammanfattning : We live in the Anthropocene – an age where humans dominate natural systems – and there is ample evidence that our current practices degrade the capacity of natural systems to provide us with natural resources. How we, as humans, organize and learn, in communities and among state and other societal actors, constitute a decisive factor for both local management of natural resources and the functioning of the planet Earth.

  4. 9. Aspects of Energy Resource Management

    Författare :Tomas Kåberger; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bio-energy; value; interdisciplinary; life-cycle analysis; tax-shift; resource; energy; electricity;

    Sammanfattning : Energy resource management requires input from many disciplines. The three first papers in this thesis deals with the use of physical terms in the interdisciplinary process where inputs from different disciplines are handled together. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Dialogue and revolution : fostering legitimate stakeholder agency in natural resource governance

    Författare :Rasmus Klocker Larsen; C. Leeuwis; Neil Dr.; Wageningen University; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; natural resources; resource management; stakeholders; participation; governance;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores how people exert their agency in policy processes that pertain to natural resource governance, and how they construct the required sense of legitimacy for such actions. It also examines the manner in which facilitated multi-stakeholder processes foster legitimate stakeholder agency, and reflects on how they may ensure the rigour of research interventions in situations characterised by intractable uncertainty and controversy.
