Low-Carbon Circular Transition in the Nordics
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2023-504/ The Nordic region aims to be a forerunner in the transition to circular economy. This project aimed to find areas, industries, and sectors, and potential in them, important for the circular transition in the Nordics. The barriers for unleashing the potential were also studied.Four areas of industry and two cross-cutting drivers were selected for the study. The bioeconomy, the food and beverage sector, building and construction, and the mobility sector play a prominent role in the Nordic economies. They are also responsible for significant emissions and waste. The drivers – applying new circular business models and better exploiting data/digitalisation – can bring change that holds promise for significant benefits.The study’s results are summed up in a set of recommendations addressing how the barriers can be torn down and how positive impacts of circular transition can be supported.
Executive Summary: Financial instruments to support a green economic recovery post-COVID-19
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2022-017/ The narrative of recovering from the impacts of COVID-19 by way of ‘building back better’ has dominated discussions on COVID-19 recovery. However, current efforts are lagging behind the IPCC’s recommendations. This report explores how the Nordic countries' recovery financing plans have been tied to "green" principles and what financial mechanisms could further support and ensure a greener recovery. The Nordic countries developed recovery plans with significant acknowledgement of the green transition in mind. The Nordic countries have supported economic recovery through a wide range of financial instruments. In the long term, fiscal reforms are necessary to embed climate-related criteria in economic growth. Moreover, it is also important to strengthen capacities to plan inclusive green transitions and monitor finance flows for its impact on the green transition.

Today, however, the strategic importance of the Arctic has gone beyond discoveries and adventures. Factors, such as environmental erosion, climate change, and national or regional security complicate geopolitical dynamics in the region. This book begins by delving into the issues that have led Arctic countries to reorient their foreign policies. The geopolitical structure of the Arctic, the expansion of NA...
Repeal the 8th
Abortion is illegal in almost every circumstance in Ireland, making it the only democracy in the western world to have such a constitutional ban. Between 1980 and 2015, at least 165,438 Irish women and girls accessed UK abortion services. In 2016, the figure was 3,265. Any woman or girl who procures an abortion, or anyone who assists a woman to procure an abortion in Ireland can be criminalised and imprisoned for up to fourteen years. A woman may not procure an abortion in Ireland if she is pregnant due to incest or rape, or to prevent inevitable miscarriage and fatal foetal abnormality. The movement to repeal the Eighth Amendment and make abortion legal in Ireland has grown massively over t...
