After observing the decrease in economic activities, air pollution and carbon emissions as a result of the lockdown measures during the COVID-19, some academics argue that such down-scaling can be considered as degrowth. Although the sudden, unplanned and chaotic downscaling of social and economic activities due to Covid-19 has some similarities with degrowth, this is not what degrowth advocates f

“On a smaller scale, biofuels can be a good alternative for public transport, but we cannot solve the climate issue by simply replacing fossil fuels with biofuels. Instead, we must reduce our energy consumption, as the total energy consumption within road transports is not decreasing”, explains David Harnesk, researcher at the LUCSUS. In his thesis, David Harnesk studied the effects of the EU’s bi

Inflammation is a natural reaction of the body’s immune system to an aggressor or an injury, but if the inflammatory response is too strong it becomes harmful. Inflammatory processes occur in the brain in conjunction with stroke and neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

Accumulation of the substance amyloid beta in the brain impairs the memory and cognitive ability in people with Alzheimer’s. New findings from Lund University in Sweden show that the cause of amyloid beta pathology might be more versatile than previously known. Researchers believe that these new findings may be of significance to the development of new medications. The accumulation of the protein

In a unique study carried out in drinking water pipes in Sweden, researchers from Lund University and the local water company tested what would happen if chlorine was omitted from drinking water. The result? An increase in bacteria, of course, but after a while something surprising happened: a harmless predatory bacteria grew in numbers and ate most of the other bacteria. The study suggests that c

Sommaren är musikfestivalernas tid. Enligt sociologen Tullia Jack är festivalerna ett bra tillfälle att experimentera med alternativa livsstilar. Detta kan bana väg för beteendeförändringar också i det vanliga livet, som exempelvis hur ofta vi duschar och tvättar oss. Nyligen deltog hon och tre kollegor i sociologi på två musikfestivaler i England. Men inte som vilka deltagare som helst. På plats
