- Global greenhouse gas emissions from air travel (GHG-A) are on the rise, and projections point towards a rapid growth in the coming decades. This study aims to examine how local government (cities), addresses GHG-A in their Sustainable Energy Action Plans (SEAP). To fulfil this aim, over 200 SEAPs were analysed focusing on three issues: (1) Treatment of GHG-A in local emissions inventories; (2) Policy initiatives within this domain; and (3) The cities’ perceptions of the conflicts of interests. Results showed that more than half of the cities acknowledge the challenge of GHG-A, around one third include GHG-A in their emissions inventories, and more than one quarter have initiated policy interventions. To categorise these interventions, we have added a mode ‘governing by agenda setting’ to an existing analytical framework, ‘Modes of governing’. With their authority limited to the local setting, this mode of governing is a common channel for cities to push changes at higher levels.

International Assessment of Event-Free Survival at 24 Months and Subsequent Survival in Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma
- 2017

Ingår i: Journal of Clinical Oncology. - 0732-183X. ; 35:36, s. 4019-

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) have aggressive clinical behavior. We have previously shown that event-free survival (EFS) at 24 months (EFS24) is a clinically useful end point in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Here, we assess EFS24 and subsequent overall survival (OS) in large, multinational PTCL cohorts. Patients and Methods Patients with systemic PTCL newly diagnosed from 2000 to 2012 and treated with curative intent were included from the United States and Sweden (initial cohorts) and from Canada (replication cohort). EFS was defined as time from date of diagnosis to progression after primary treatment, retreatment, or death. Subsequent OS was measured after achieving EFS24 or from the time of progression if it occurred within 24 months. OS rates were compared with the age-, sex-, and country-matched general population. Results Seven hundred seventy-five patients were included in the study (the median age at diagnosis was 64 years; 63% were men). Results were similar in the initial and replication cohorts, and a combined analysis was undertaken. Sixty-four percent of patients progressed within the first 24 months and had a median OS of only 4.9 months (5-year OS, 11%). In contrast, median OS after achieving EFS24 was not reached (5-year OS, 78%), although relapses within 5 years of achieving EFS24 occurred in 23% of patients. Superior outcomes after achieving EFS24 were observed in younger patients (≤ 60 years of age: 5-year OS, 91%). Conclusion EFS24 stratifies subsequent outcome in PTCL. Patients with PTCL with primary refractory disease or early relapse have extremely poor survival. However, more than one third of patients with PTCL remain in remission 2 years after diagnosis with encouraging subsequent OS, especially in younger patients. These marked differences in outcome suggest that EFS24 has utility for patient counseling, study design, and risk stratification in PTCL.

Assessing ‘Green Energy Economy’ policies for transforming the building stock in Shanghai
- 2014

Ingår i: [Host publication title missing].

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The 2008–2009 global financial crisis triggered ‘Green Energy Economy’ (GEE) policy packages to stimulate green growth in many countries. China soon became a leader and, supported by its 11th Five-Year Plan (2006–2010), devoted approximately one-third of its US$ 647 billion stimulus package to green energy technologies. Since then, numerous policy instruments have been implemented to encourage ‘Green Buildings’. We take the Chinese city of Shanghai as a case study as it has the largest population, urbanization ratio and GDP in China and evaluate the performance of GEE policies targeted at the multi-household building sector. We use a bottom-up modelling tool to quantitatively estimate alternative baselines and assess different policy scenarios for the period 2010–2050. We measure the performance of policies in relation to energy use, efficiency improvements, CO2 emissions and net direct economic impacts. Our results suggest that current GEE policies are insufficient to stimulate radical change in the building sector. When unambitious policy measures are implemented in isolation, they provide marginal improvements compared to current building codes. The retrofitting of existing buildings is both a significant policy challenge, and offers fertile ground for improvements. Our results show that ambitious, technology-oriented financial incentives for both new and existing buildings, including energy price reform and a CO2 tax offer the right mix of incentives for green building transformation. When the social costs of climate change are taken into account, an integrated policy mix also delivers the highest net economic benefits. We conclude that policies must be more ambitious and include an integrated mix of instruments in order to drive a low-carbon transformation of both new and existing buildings in Shanghai. Finally, the theoretical impacts and potential benefits of GEE policy instruments must not underestimate the challenges associated with their design, implementation and enforcement.

Byggherredialogen i Sege Park : –reflektioner två år in i processen
- 2019
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Sege Park är ett före detta sjukhus- och parkområde i Malmö som byggs och förtätas. Sege Park har tydliga hållbarhetsmål som ska konkretiseras bland annat genom en byggherredialog. Byggherredialogen drivs av Malmö stad och där ingår 13 byggherrar. I denna rapport redovisas resultatet av de lärdomar som kan dras från byggherredialogen utifrån de två år som den pågått. Dialogen är inte slutförd och lärdomarna handlar därför främst om erfarenheter av själva processen, då aspekter kopplade till genomförande och måluppfyllelse inte är möjliga att studera i det här skedet. Rapporten bygger på intervjuer med deltagande byggherrar, samt deltagarna observationer vid byggherremöten gjorda av forskarna.Det övergripande resultatet är att byggherredialog som process genomgående av byggherrarna upplevs som mycket positivt. Att få träffa och diskutera olika frågor framhävs som någonting bra och är en metod som bör behållas även i framtida projekt. Det som framhållits som positivt så här långt in i processen är:•Hög ambitionsnivå med ett tydligt lärmoment •Tydligt övergripande syfte•Bra närvaro och processledning från Malmö stads sida•Väl sammansatt grupp med god sammanhållning•Relevanta teman•Inspirerande studiebesök och konkreta exempel•Arbetsgrupperna som forum för konkret problemlösning•Tydligt ledarskap i delningsgruppen•Stöttande hållbarhetssamtalFörslag till förändringar inför framtida dialoger är:•Variera mötesupplägget•Konkretisera dialogen •Inkludera ett återkommande tema om allmän platsmark•Se över upplägget av temana•Öppna för dialog om oplanerade frågor•Dra nytta av byggherrarnas kompetens•Beakta närvaro och rättvis arbetsbelastning•Tydliggör förväntningar från staden och generellt•Stärk den interna dialogen i Malmö stad •Tydliggör hållbarhetssamordnarens roll och uppgifter•Förbered bättre för överlämningen av processledarskapet till byggherrarna•Se över byggherredialogens längd och anpassa intensiteten

The Role of Local Governments in Governing Sustainable Consumption and Sharing Cities

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Municipalities are key actors in their role as planners for sustainable urban development, and also have the responsibility to transform ambitious national and global goals and visions into local practices (McCormick et al., 2013). The role of municipalities in relation to enhancing sustainable consumption patterns has been increasingly highlighted by policy-makers and in research. Creating sustainable societies and shaping their consumption patterns has become an everyday activity for municipalities. This is also the case for the Nordic countries and not least for Sweden, which will be used as an example in this Chapter. The Nordic countries have the ambition of becoming sustainable leaders and enabling sustainable consumption (Mont et al., 2013).
