hangon[edit]

The article has been put up for Afd. Without too much effort the article can be rescued. See the Afd for reasons to retain the article. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:53, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see no reasons to retain an article with no content on the Afd. There is no article to be rescued. It's an empty shell and has been for several months. I have nothing about the theoretical existence of such an article, it's just that there is no content. Stinging Swarm ^talk 08:17, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The speedy deletion nomination is different than the deletion discussion. The justification for speedy deletion would be "A7" here.--Stinging Swarm ^talk 08:20, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am working on the article as we speak. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:22, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Added Policy section. Hope it helps. Lauraserbu (talk) 22:19, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We are a group of students in Uppsala University and we are going to start working on this article Preceding unsigned comment added by Amina El Shazly (UU) (talk • contribs) 16:18, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Amina El Shazly (UU) (talk) 16:25, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Amina El Shazly (UU)Amina El Shazly (UU) (talk) 16:25, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

National emissions versus company emissions[edit]

According to Greenpeace in 2009 climate gas emissions of Swedish company Vattenfall were double compared to Swedish total. In 2009 Vattenfall had 12 coal power stations in Poland, Germany, Denmark and Holland.
In 2016 Vattenfall sold its German lignite / brown coal business , coalmines and two power plants near the German-Polish border to Czech operator EPH.

Do companies report their international emissions? How should one consider this internationally? Watti Renew (talk) 16:55, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Suggested changes to headings and structure[edit]

I suggest to change the headings and structure of this article to be in line with the template that has been proposed here for all articles of the nature "Climate change in Country X": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Climate_change/Style_guide (see also discussion on that page's talk page). Anyone has any objections? If not, who's got time to give it a go? I am slowly working away at this for all the countries but would love some collaborators.

I've done some quick work on restructuring the article. Looks much better now, I think. The section on "mitigation" seems to be missing still? Perhaps it's hidden in some of the other text but I couldn't find it at first sight. Chidgk1 and PlanetCare, what do you think of this article now? EMsmile (talk) 03:32, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not really related to restructuring but I like that their GHG per person is compared with the world average, but at a quick glance it was not obvious whether road transport or aviation is now the single largest emitter. Whichever it is should be mentioned in the lead I think. Also if any Swedes are reading this it seems from https://www.electricitymap.org/map that your renewable electricity is exported and reducing the carbon intensity of other EU countries like Poland? If so you could big that up. Chidgk1 (talk) 13:44, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I teach a course on Ecological Effects of Climate Change at Uppsala University where part of the course is about editing Wikipedia pages related to these areas. Previous courses have for example made major edits in the articles Climate change in Norway and Climate change in Svalbard. We could have the students continuing to work on these types of articles and it would be very helpful to get the list of prioritized articles to edit for the up-coming course this spring.

Indeed, Sweden is a major exporter of electricity and the electricity Sweden is producing had in 2020 as its origin 45% water power, 30% nuclear power and 17% wind power, with wind power and nuclear power approaching equal shares within a few years. --Olle Terenius (UU) (talk) 10:27, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Paris agreemment[edit]

Hello! We are three students from the Ecological Effects of Climate Changes course at Uppsala University. We're working on updating the paris agrement in some of the climate change articles as part of our coursework. We're learning and welcome any feedback. FalckisUU (talk) 14:46, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
