1. 11. Plantskoleproduktion utan torv : en inblick i torvfria plantskolor i Storbritannien

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

   Author : Thorsten Joeris; [2022]
   Keywords : barkmull; containerodling; grönkompost; hållbar; kokosfiber; komposterad ull; odlingssubstrat; odlingssystem; torvmark; träfiber;

   Abstract : Torvmarker täcker ~3% av världens landyta och har sedan senaste istiden fungerat som en viktig kolsänka, som tar upp koldioxid (CO2) ur atmosfären. Ungefär 10% av torvmarkerna på jorden har dränerats, huvudsakligen för skogs- och lantbruk, samt till viss del för torvbruk. READ MORE

   Abstract : There is an urgent need to mitigate carbon emissions to the atmosphere to reduce the negative effects of climate change. Countries have pledged national strategies to reach their climate change mitigation goals in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC). In the case of Colombia, the country envisions becoming carbon neutral by 2050. READ MORE

6. 15. Development of a Flexitarian food product : The Flexi hot dog

   University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

   Author : Valli Tirounavoucarassou; [2022]
   Keywords : flexitarian; diets; carbon footprint; sensory evaluation; consumer preferences; nutrient assessment;

   Abstract : Many studies show that plant-based diets are good for both human health and the environment and recommend lowering meat intake considering mounting environmental and animal welfare issues. This facet prompted protein transitions around the world, which in turn aided in the emergence of various diets. READ MORE
