This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. Exporting the Swedish welfare model is not a good idea. At least not as a recipe for achieving a more sustainable society, says Professor Max Koch, manager of a research team that links the climate crisis with welfare. Sweden’s relatively low carbon emissions, despite a high gross domestic product, are partly due to t

Nordic and Andean countries started their economic modernisation in the same way: with export of raw natural resources. Later on, Norway and Sweden became rich, while Bolivia, Chile and Peru followed a quite different path. What made them diverge from the common road? Different fiscal policies may be one of the reasons, new research from Lund University suggests. In the mid-19th century, Norway ex

There is a fast-growing trend to design smart electronics with custom-sized batteries that are embedded into devices with glue and solder. As a result, repairing, reusing, repurposing, and recycling batteries and the devices they power has become increasingly difficult and sometimes simply impossible. The EU battery regulation can address these issues and improve how we produce and consume batteri
