  1. 1. Development and Application of an End-of-Life Framework

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Daniel Blomberg; David Lorang; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As the global climate crisis becomes more urgent, organizations are forced to find ways of reducing their environmental footprint to meet changing climate policies and consumer demands. As the automotive industry is adapting to the shift from internal combustion engines to electrification, as well as the shift from traditional linear business models to circular ones, there is a chance for new actors entering the market to adopt circular business models from their inception, giving them an edge over incumbent firms who have slower adaption times.

    Abstract : Boreal forests are particularly vulnerable to climate change, experiencing a much more drastic increase in temperatures and having a limited amount of more northern refugia. The trees making up these vast and important ecosystems already had to adapt previously to environmental pressures brought about by the repeated glaciations during past ice ages. READ MORE
