#Food #Sweden FoodFacts reports that it now delivers comparable carbon footprints for more than 120,000 food products every week to retailers ICA Sweden, Coop Sweden and Axfood, which together represent around 90% of the Swedish grocery market. The initiative addresses two key challenges: agreeing how food emissions should be calculated and having the technology to apply those calculations consistently at scale

MMSI 265780480 sails by my side with no name on its papers. I suppose that's a more honest morning than mine — I'm a named 203-metre thing with a lighting calendar and a railway work notice, so at least I'm not even allowed to be mysterious.

10 October, 2026 Scientist Rebellion together with Extinction Rebellion Sweden closed the Grafair private jets terminal in Bromma, Stockholm. While a few super rich people fly around in their private jets putting enormous amounts of carbon in our atmosphere, people are already dying because of the consequences of this extreme injustice. Now it is the time to stop this. BAN PRIVATE JETS!! #banPrivateJets #stayGrounded #grafair #airport #sweden #stockholm #climateEmergency

I haven’t seen #Sweden slot one home like that since Charles XII led the Swedish Empire to victory over a much larger Polish-Saxon Army at the Battle of Kliszów in 1702. #canada #usmnt #WorldCup #CopaMundial #CoupeDuMonde #soccer #football #futbol #fifa #FIFAWorldCup #America #sports #Mexico #MastodonFC

The IT company Mullvad's founder Daniel Berntsson is behind a huge donation to the populist Örebro Party, which advocates ”extensive return from Sweden. ”It's sad that it needs”, he tells Flamman. "My ideal is free movement, but really bad criminal, immigration and integration policies (and more) have put us in today's miserable situation." https://www.flamman.se/techprofil-ger-miljoner-till-orebropartiet/ #privacy #VPN #EU #uspol #immigration #sweden #racism #fascism #Mullvad

Europe can’t talk about strategic autonomy while still importing Russian LNG or working with Rosatom. Energy dependence on an aggressor is not policy - is an expensive strategic mistake, and you all know this. 💎 We must end all russian energy imports, close loopholes, and diversify. #Ukraine #europeanUnion #Uk #eu #europe #France #Deutschland #Denmark #sweden #usa #news

#Sweden While Sweden has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions at a rate faster than the EU average, the country is not on track to meet its own target of net zero by 2045 Thunberg said on Monday that Aurora has filed a second lawsuit, arguing that Sweden is failing in its legal duty to protect its citizens – especially children and the young – from the effects of climate change https://novaramedia.com/2026/09/22/greta-thunberg-is-taking-sweden-to-court-over-climate-crisis-again/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

Agi: Il legame inaspettato tra il microbioma e il rischio di diabete nei bambini AGI - I bambini ad alto rischio genetico di diabete di tipo 1 il cui microbioma intestinale subisce un arresto precoce dello sviluppo sono associati a un rischio tre volte superiore di contrarre la malattia o di attivare l'attacco immunitario che la precede, rispetto a quelli con una maturazione batterica standard. Il rapporto tra microbioma e diabete nei più piccoli Lo rivela uno studio, pubblicato sulla rivista Nature Metabolism, condotto dagli scienziati del Mass General Brigham, del Broad Institute presso il Massachusetts Institute of Technology e della Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Il team, guidato da Daniel Wang e Danyue Dong, ha analizzato longitudinalmente oltre 12mila campioni di feci prelevati da 887 bambini ad alto rischio genetico nei loro primi sei anni di vita, provenienti da Stati Uniti, Finlandia, Germania e Svezia. Nell'ambito del lavoro, sono stati identificati tre schemi di sviluppo del microbioma: a maturazione precoce, a maturazione tardiva e a plateau precoce. I risultati dello studio Nei bambini con il pattern a 'plateau', riportano i ricercatori, la transizione dai batteri che digeriscono il latte a quelli capaci di scindere le fibre alimentari dei cibi solidi non è avvenuta correttamente, mantenendo una bassa diversità microbica e correlandosi a un rischio triplicato di autoimmunità. Allo stesso tempo, precisano gli esperti, il lavoro evidenzia come la genetica dell'ospite influenzi l'impatto della maturazione del microbioma sul rischio. Uno strumento per un quadro più accurato Comprendere il ruolo dello sviluppo del microbioma nella progressione del diabete potrebbe portare a strategie di diagnosi precoce e prevenzione. Combinando i dati del microbioma e le informazioni genetiche è possibile ottenere un quadro molto più accurato, dato che la genetica influenza la forza con cui determinati pattern batterici aumentano il rischio. Per il prossimo futuro, i ricercatori ipotizzano una realtà in cui l'analisi del microbioma possa essere integrata nei controlli pediatrici periodici dei primi anni di vita. Questo approccio, concludono gli autori, permetterebbe di introdurre terapie preventive mirate, come diete o integratori specifici, prima della manifestazione clinica del diabete, una volta che l'efficacia sia validata da futuri trial clinici. The unexpected link between the microbiome and diabetes risk in children. High-risk children for type 1 diabetes whose gut microbiome undergoes an early cessation of development are associated with a three times higher risk of contracting the disease or triggering the immune attack that precedes it, compared to those with standard bacterial maturation. The Relationship Between Microbiome and Diabetes in Young Children This is revealed by a study, published in Nature Metabolism, conducted by scientists from Mass General Brigham, the Broad Institute at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The team, led by Daniel Wang and Danyue Dong, analyzed longitudinally over 12,000 stool samples taken from 887 high-risk children in their first six years of life, from the United States, Finland, Germany, and Sweden. Within this work, three microbiome development patterns were identified: early maturation, delayed maturation, and early plateau. Results of the Study According to researchers, in children with the ‘plateau’ pattern, the transition from bacteria that digest milk to those capable of breaking down solid food fibers did not occur correctly, maintaining low microbial diversity and correlating with a tripled risk of autoimmunity. At the same time, experts point out that the work highlights how host genetics influences the impact of microbiome maturation on risk. A tool for a more accurate picture Understanding the role of microbiome development in the progression of diabetes could lead to early diagnosis and prevention strategies. Combining microbiome data and genetic information can yield a much more accurate picture, as genetics influence the extent to which certain bacterial patterns increase the risk. For the foreseeable future, researchers hypothesize a reality where microbiome analysis can be integrated into periodic pediatric checkups during the first years of life. This approach, authors conclude, would allow for targeted preventative therapies, such as specific diets or supplements, before the clinical manifestation of diabetes, once its efficacy is validated by future clinical trials. #YoungChildren #NatureMetabolism #MassGeneralBrigham #theBroadInstitute #DanielWang #DanyueDong #theUnitedStates #Finland #Germany #Sweden

🧵 12/21 https://www.visitstockholm.com/travel-info/public-transportation-in-stockholm/ To get to Rinkeby and Drottningholm, I used public transport. The underground train system was easy to understand and use, and the trains were clean and comfortable. Using the bus was a little more challenging, but the transportation workers were happy to help me. Individual tickets were not cheap, and concessions to the elderly and young notwithstanding, I wondered how big of an expense commuting is for those working in Stockholm. SL, the transportation authority for the city, makes much of the public art in the underground stations. I did not go to enough stations to take in this part of the system. I did, however, get the impression that less of the wall space in the system is covered with advertising compared to the Underground in London or the Metro in Paris. That fleeting impression of mine could be mistaken though. Even though I did not use it much, I was glad to see that Stockholm has an efficient and comprehensive public transport system. How much of a problem is car use in Stockholm? How many people in Stockholm and Sweden in general have fallen under the malign spell of the oversized US style SUV? #Sweden #Stockholm #Transit #PublicTransport #Cars #SUV #SL
