1. Essays in Environmental Policy Evaluation
Sammanfattning : Paper 1: The Effects of an Environmental Policy on Consumers – Lessons from the Chinese Plastic Bag Regulation Abstract: In an attempt to reduce plastic bag litter, China introduced a nationwide regulation requiring all retailers to charge for plastic shopping bags on June 1, 2008. By using the policy implementation as a natural experiment and conducting two surveys before and after the implementation, we investigate the impact of the regulation on people’s plastic shopping bag use.

4. Design and synthesis of rhodium and iridium bis-η2 diolefin catalysts: : Applications in C–C bond formation and asymmetric catalysis
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the design and synthesis of rhodium and iridium bis-η2 diolefin catalysts and their applications in C–C bond formation and asymmetric catalysis.More specifically, the second chapter describes the development of inter- and intramolecular (5+2) cycloadditions catalyzed by cationic iridium(I) complexes that lead to the formation of seven-membered rings in a single step.

5. New approaches to preparation and storage of platelets
Sammanfattning : During the last century, transfusion of blood components has become a prerequisite for treatment in many clinical settings. The availability of plastic bags and methods for centrifugation and separation of blood cells, has enabled processing of whole blood into blood cell components, and made it possible to optimize transfusion therapy, as well as storage conditions.
