Mamma Andersson
In addition to personal life experiences, the Swedish artist Mamma Andersson draws on a number of other sources for her paintings, including northern landscape painting of the 19th and 20th century, interiors from forensic investigations and scenes from theatre brochures.The shift from meticulous attention to detail to gestural and abstract work lends the paintings an uncannily suggestive power. Thus, the portrayal of an everyday walk becomes a family drama, a children's room is revealed as a place of loneliness and destruction. The artist is concerned at all times with life in its entirety: a reflection of the contemporary human condition.Published on the occasion of the exhibition Mamma Andersson: Dog Days at Kunstmuseen Krefeld, Museum Haus Esters, 23 October - 5 February 2011.English and German text.
Workshop Report: Nordic Action for a Transformation to Low-carbon Shipping
The Paris Agreement aims to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels (and pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5°C), but does not refer specifically to greenhouse gas emissions from the international maritime transport sector. This Report outlines the findings of a project commissioned by the Nordic Council of Ministers, focusing on opportunities for Nordic countries to achieve a transition to low-carbon shipping at national, regional and global scales. It is informed by discussions at the World Maritime University in Malmö in December 2016 between representatives of governments, businesses, NGOs and the research community. The Report presents a low-carbon roadmap for shipping with actions and outcomes concerning low-carbon technology, ship operations, finance, public policy, and public-private partnerships.

You will also gain knowledge on emissions and discharges from ships, prevention measures, environmental regulations, and methods and tools for environmental assessment. In addition, the book includes a chapter on the background to regulating pollution from ships.
