1. 11. Risk Factors of Food Loss and Waste, and Life Cycle Assessment of waste management strategies in the Brazilian Leafy Vegetable Supply Chain

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Nathalie Garavito; [2023]
   Keywords : Behavioural causes; carbon footprint; causal mapping; mitigation strategies; prevention; root-cause analysis; take-back agreements;

   Abstract : Food loss and waste (FLW) occurring early in the food supply chain (FSC) leads to increased resource wastage, including land, water, fertilisers, pesticides, fuel, packaging, energy, and labour. Targeting FLW prevention benefits various aspects such as food security, productivity, economic growth, climate change mitigation, resource conservation, and food waste management. READ MORE

3. 12. Carbon Premium & Policy Uncertainty: An Analysis of Correlation Between Carbon Exposure and Stock Returns, and the Impact of Presidential Elections on Carbon Risk.

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för finansiell ekonomi

   Author : Sander Hugosson; Jacob Lundquist; [2022]
   Keywords : Carbon premium; Stock returns; Sustainable finance; Presidential elections; Carbon emissions;

   Abstract : Earth's climate is changing, but the timing and extent of policy responses remain uncertain. This paper aims to test the correlation between firms' carbon emissions and stock returns. The analysis is two-leveled; a general test throughout the period 2012 to 2022, and two separate tests surrounding the last two American presidential elections. READ MORE

4. 13. Voltage Stability and Reactive Power - Introduction of Intermittent Renewable Energy Sources in a Power System

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Erik Hagström; Tobias Jansson; [2022]
   Keywords : Voltage Stability; Reactive Power; Renewable Energy; Wind Power; Power Flow Analysis; MATPOWER;

   Abstract : The electricity demand increases rapidly, and in order to mitigate climate change the power production needs to be renewable and free from green house gas emissions. When solar and wind power are introduced in the system, voltage instability might become a problem. READ MORE

To address this issue, global and national goals have been developed which aim to foster climate-neutral societies and industries. READ MORE

6. 15. Improved Understanding of Water Balance in the Malwathu Oya River Basin Using SWAT and Remote Sensing

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Alexander Fors; [2022]
   Keywords : actual evapotranspiration; Malwathu Oya; remote sensing; Sri Lanka; SWAT modelling; SWAT calibration; WaPOR; water balance; faktisk evapotranspiration; fjärranalys; Malwathu Oya; Sri Lanka; SWAT-modellering; SWAT-kalibrering; vattenbalans; WaPOR;

   Abstract : As the need for climatic data is increasing in times of climate change and water scarcity, remote sensing (RS) and hydrological modelling are ways to battle these problems, especially in data scarce areas. The actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is one of the key parameters when assessing the water balance and a good estimate of this parameter is thus of great importance. READ MORE
