Climate impact of material consumption in the health care sector - case study Region Scania

The healthcare sector is resource intensive and consumes large amount of energy, water, and materials. A study on the release of carbon dioxide from a life cycle perspective of Region Scania's operations has shown that 41 % of the total CO2 emissions is related to material consumption. A later study showed that one of the products with large climate impact was waste bags and other waste wrapping s

Att utmana stressen

Stress som begrepp har dessvärre kommit att stå för allt och inget. Samhällets reaktioner på överbelastning och sjukskrivningar har till stor del kommit att resultera i dellösningar som inte räcker särskilt långt. Här diskuterar sju forskare vad som är sj

Microbial Electrochemical System: extracellular electron transfer from photosynthesis and respiration to electrode

Popular Abstract in English The global energy consumption is increasing regularly due to the increased population and economic development. In contrast the primary energy sources, fossil fuels, are declining substantially. The combustion of fossil fuels contributes to the global climate change via greenhouse effects. To minimize these negative effects a carbon-neutral energy production is demandedThe electrochemical communication between microorganisms and electrodes has substantial implications both for basic understanding of biological electron transfer as well as in diverse applications, such as, microbial electrochemical system (MES), microbial biosensors and in production of valuable chemicals. In these systems the extracellular electron transfer (EET) from microbial metabolism to ele
