This document discusses acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE) production through fermentation using Clostridium bacteria. It provides background on past ABE fermentation processes and experiments testing different substrates such as glucose, corn fiber, and starches. Specifically, it summarizes a study that successfully produced butanol and ethanol from corn stover fermentation using Clostridium beijerinckii, yielding approximately 4mL of butanol and 1mL of ethanol from 1L of corn stover solution. The productivity of n-butanol was 3.37% and the solvent yield was in a 4:1 ratio of 80% butanol and 20% ethanol, representing a 25% increase from prior A
The document summarizes several presentations given at a seminar on forest and plant health held on November 11th, 2022 at the Natural Resources Institute Finland in Helsinki.
The first presentation summarized a 20-year study on the effects of restoration treatments including prescribed burning, dead wood creation, and retention trees on dead wood diversity and epixylic communities in boreal spruce forests. Preliminary findings showed long-term benefits of these treatments for maintaining dead wood and wood-inhabiting diversity.
The second presentation discussed a study on intraspecific growth variation in Norway spruce, finding that soil variation and genetic factors significantly influence functional trait variation, but specific soil agents causing environment-specific growth patterns require more research

This document summarizes a seminar on forest and plant health held on April 6th, 2022 at the Natural Resources Institute Finland in Helsinki. It includes summaries of several presentations:
1. Tord Snäll presented research on evaluating forest management scenarios and their impacts on biodiversity indicators and ecosystem services over 100 years. The green infrastructure scenario optimized environmental indicators while the economy scenario had the most negative impacts.
2. Juha Tuomola discussed research assessing the likelihood of pine wood nematode causing pine wilt disease or establishing in Finnish forests under current and future climate scenarios. Results found the climate is currently too cool and may only become suitable by 2080 under the worst-case climate scenario.

This document summarizes a study analyzing 123 texts written by Finnish high school students aged 15-18 describing their visions of sustainable food systems in Finland in 2050. Through qualitative analysis, the students' visions were condensed into 6 alternative futures: 1) Slow change 2) Domestic and local production 3) Conscious consumer 4) Regulation 5) Technology 6) Dystopia. The visions highlighted big changes to diets and food sources, concerns about plastic packaging, and ensuring social and economic sustainability through eating together and valuing producers. The students proposed technological solutions and ideas to reduce packaging waste through better recycling, less packaging, new materials, and reuse.
The document summarizes research on how emotions play a role in strategic packaging decisions for sustainability. It discusses how packaging development requires balancing usability, saleability, environmental friendliness and production effectiveness. Managers face dilemmas in balancing these factors as sustainability targets change. The research examines how emotions like satisfaction, frustration, and worry influence how managers evaluate opportunities and make decisions. It proposes that understanding emotions can help managers commit to responsible packaging solutions and navigate uncertainties when sustainability goals are evolving.
This document discusses sustainability decisions for businesses. It notes that sustainability can provide competitive advantages like efficiency, reputation benefits, and avoiding future regulations. However, sustainability orientation does not always lead to improved firm performance and may require large trade-offs. Studies discussed found that willingness to switch to more sustainable materials depends on factors like a product or process's dependency on existing materials and environmental friendliness as a predictor of change. The document advocates making sustainability decisions by responding to and anticipating stakeholder needs and feelings, including others' perspectives, and considering one's responsibilities.
This document discusses sustainability transitions in food packaging from the perspective of companies. It defines sustainability transitions as long-term transformations to more sustainable production and consumption. For food packaging, this involves innovations that meet changing societal values around policy, media, consumer and supply chain demands. However, barriers like complexity, uncertainty and competition exist. Collaboration is seen as key to overcoming barriers by creating shared understanding and multi-party problem solving. Currently, companies collaborate through associations, but different roles in relation to change exist, from maintaining the status quo to facilitating change. Ongoing and upcoming facilitated dialogues and the PackageHeroes transition arena aim to further cross-system collaboration for deciding concrete transition pathways.

• Uhanalaisuusarviointi on
keskeinen mittari, kun tullaan
tarkastelemaan Suomen ja
muiden maiden onnistumista
tavoitteen toteuttamisessa
5. IUCN:n uhanalaisuusluokittelu
• Menetelmä, jonka avulla voidaan
arvioida lajien häviämisriskiä
• Kehitettiin alun perin tunnistamaan ja
luokittelemaan maailmanlaajuisella
tasolla häviämisvaarassa olevat
eliölajit

7. Arviointi
• Arvioinnin kohteena ovat
• luonnonvaraiset, luontaisella levinneisyysalueellaan elävät
lajit (tai lajitasoa alemmat taksonit)
• myös säännöllisesti vierailevat lajit voidaan arvioida, ei
kuitenkaan satunnaisia
• Arvioitaessa lajien häviämisriskiä valtakunnallisilla tai muilla
alueellisilla tasoilla on otettava huomioon tekijöitä, joita ei tule
vastaan maailmanlaajuisessa arvioinnissa. Tällaisia ovat
esimerkiksi yli geopoliittisten rajojen esiintyvien populaatioiden
arviointi, alueella lisääntymättömien elämänvaiheiden tai
tulokaslajien arviointi.

8. Uhanalaisen lajin määritelmä
Laji on uhanalainen, kun se parhaan saatavilla olevan tiedon
perusteella täyttää jonkun äärimmäisen uhanalaisten, erittäin
uhanalaisen tai vaarantuneen luokan kriteereistä A–E, ja siihen
arvioidaan täten kohdistuvan luonnossa erittäin korkea (CR) /
hyvin korkea (EN) / korkea (VU) häviämisriski

9. Arviointikriteerit tiivistetysti
A: pienenevä/taantuva populaatio
• vähintään 30 % pieneneminen 10 vuoden tai kolmen sukupolven aikana
• populaation koolle tai lajin levinneisyysalueelle ei rajoitusta
B: levinneisyys- ja esiintymisalueen koko, pirstoutuminen, taantuminen tai
voimakkaat vaihtelut
• levinneisyys- tai esiintymisalueen koko (20 000 km² / 2 000 km²)
• lisäksi kaksi kolmesta: max. 10 esiintymää, jatkuva taantuminen tai erittäin
suuret vaihtelut

14. Uhanalaisuusarvioinnin asema
• Uhanalaisuusarviointi on lajien häviämisriskin arviointi
• Uhanalaisuusarviointi tai Punainen kirja ei sellaisenaan ole
lajien suojelutarpeen arviointi eikä priorisointi
• Ei suoraan lainsäädännössä määriteltyjä vaikutuksia vaikutus
luonnonsuojeluasetuksen kautta
• Luonnonsuojelulain soveltamisalaan kuuluvat uhanalaiset lajit
luetellaan luonnonsuojeluasetuksen liitteessä, jonka sisältöön
uhanalaisuusarvioinnilla on keskeinen vaikutus
• Samassa liitteessä määritellään myös erityisesti suojeltavat lajit
• Luonnonsuojeluasetuksen liite ei sisällä riistalajeja eikä
taloudellisesti hyödynnettäviä kalalajeja, vaikka ne olisivat
uhanalaisia ja niiden säilyminen edellyttäisi erityisiä
toimenpiteitä
