  • 2017 Annual Meeting in Sweden
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 2017 ANNUAL MEETING IN SWEDEN When is the meeting registration deadline? January 9, 2017 What is the easiest way to register and pay? Go to the tour operator’s secure website http://www.askmrnilsson.se/magnolia-society/ and pay with a VISA or MasterCard. With so many registration choices, how do I pick just one? It’s not as complicated as it seems. You only need to make 3 decisions. 1) Which locations do you want to visit? 2) Do you want the tour operator to book your travel or make your own transportation plans within the timeframe of the annual meeting? 3) Do you want to share a hotel room with someone or stay in a room by yourself? Which airport should I use? CPH, Copenhagen Airport in Denmark, is the main international airport serving southern Sweden. You should book round trip from your departure destination to/from CPH. If you participate in any of the itinerary locations beyond Malmo and have the tour operator book your travel, your registration fee will include travel back to Copenhagen. If you are only attending the Uppsala portion of the meeting, you should fly into Stockholm Arlanda Airport, ARN. Transportation between the airport and hotel in Uppsala will be on your own. There are multiple taxi and rental car services available at the airport, as well as bus and train options. What dates and times should I select for my round trip into CPH? ARRIVAL: You should select a flight that will bring you into CPH during the afternoon of May 4.

  • The Use of Aviation Biofuels As an Airport Environmental Sustainability Measure: the Case of Oslo Gardermoen Airport Glenn Baxter1*, Panarat Srisaeng1, Graham Wild2
    Czech Technical University in Prague Magazine of Aviation Development Faculty of Transportation Sciences 8(1):6-17, 2020, ISSN: 1805-7578 Department of Air Transport DOI: 10.14311/MAD.2020.01.01 The Use of Aviation Biofuels as an Airport Environmental Sustainability Measure: The Case of Oslo Gardermoen Airport Glenn Baxter1*, Panarat Srisaeng1, Graham Wild2 1School of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Suan Dusit University, Hua Hin Prachaup Khiri Khan, Thailand 2School of Engineering, RMIT University, Box 2476, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia 3000 *Corresponding author: School of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Suan Dusit University, Hua Hin Prachaup Khiri Khan, Thailand. Email g [email protected] Abstract In recent times, there has been a growing trend by airports and airlines to use aviation biofuel as an environment sustainability measure. Using an instrumental qualitative case study research design, this paper examines the evolution of sustainable aviation fuels at Oslo Airport Gardermoen. Oslo Airport Gardermoen was the first airport in the world to offer the first airport in the world to offer aviation biofuels to all airlines in 2016. The qualitative data were examined by document analysis. The study found that the use of sustainable aviation biofuels has delivered tangible environmental benefits to Oslo Gardermoen Airport. The usage of aviation biofuels has enabled the airport, and the airlines using sustainable aviation biofuels, to reduce their greenhouse gases by 10-15%. Also, as part of Norway’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the Norwegian Government have mandated that the aviation fuel industry must mix 0.5% advanced biofuel into jet fuel from 2020 onwards.

Journal of Political Ecology, 27(1), 612-634. https://doi.org/10.2458/v27i1.23749 Download date: 30. sep.. 2021 Cultivating urban conviviality: urban farming in the shadows of Copenhagen's neoliberalisms Rebecca L. Rutt1 University of Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract In this article I explore how the possibilities for commoning and conviviality through small-scale urban farming initiatives intertwine with neoliberal trends. I do this by recounting the trajectory of a small rooftop garden in the city of Copenhagen, Denmark. Drawing on ethnographic research in and around this garden, I show how such communal, anti-capitalist, eco-social endeavors are thoroughly entangled in the city's neoliberal turn over recent decades. Various manifestations of neoliberalism, ranging from formalization processes to austerity pressures, articulate with convivial urban farming initiatives in contradictory and recursive relationships that both nurture and endanger these local initiatives. I describe for example how formalization engenders legitimacy but also homogenization and how green initiatives are celebrated while undermined

  • Contingency, Debate, and Pop- up 'Hygge' at Valby Pavilion
    Contingency, debate, and pop- up ‘hygge’ at Valby Pavilion: Situating temporary public urban settings in design critique Anne Margrethe Wagner Assistant professor, Architect MAA University of Copenhagen Division of Landscape Architecture and Planning/IGN Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract Public spaces emerge through a diverse field of practices and events that combine to make space and create meaning. In today’s design and planning practice, temporary interventions play an increasing role in the creation and rethinking of public space ‘on the go’. In such transitional interventions, ‘the project’ is both physically and symbolically created through entangled actions of design with somewhat non-designed and informal practices and DIY aesthetics, as well as various narratives and modes of communication. Temporary public spaces thereby challenge established ways of evaluating and critiquing spatial settings as determined design solutions or ‘classic’ architectural works—in terms of what they do and how they can be qualitatively understood as part of contemporary place-making approaches. This article forms a critique of the project Valby Pavilion, a temporary space in Valby (Copenhagen, Denmark) that serves as a test setup for the future use of its highly contested site. Through a juxtaposition of selected theoretical perspectives from art and architectural criticism to relational site thinking and performance studies, the discussion of the project elaborates upon which aspects require detailed attention when performing a critique of temporary urban public spaces. The article concludes that critical examination of a number of issues (intentionality and origin, the role of spatial adaptions, appropriation, events and situated public debate, dominant planning paradigms, and the characteristic aesthetics of the informal) helps to fruitfully locate public settings initiated under the ‘temporary project’ label within design and architectural critique.

  • Travel Directions
    T R A V E L D I R ECTIONS We are located in southern Sweden, halfway between Stockholm and Copenhagen, Denmark. Holsby is situated in the community of Holsbybrunn, about eight kilometers outside the city of Vetlanda. We offer shuttle pick-up from the train/bus station in Vetlanda. We do not offer airport pickups. All travelers requiring pickup from Vetlanda must notify the school of the time of their arrival in Vetlanda. Directions If you are arriving from outside Europe, the best airport destinations are Stockholm (Sweden) or Copenhagen (Denmark). From here you will have to take a train or bus to Vetlanda. When booking flights, find one arriving no later than 14:00 (2 p.m.). If you arrive after 15:00 (3 p.m.) you may miss the last train of the day to Vetlanda and will have to spend the night. The same is true when leaving Holsby. Don’t make flight reservations for any earlier than 12 noon. Early afternoon is recommended. If you have to spend the night in Stockholm or Copenhagen: http://www.hostels.com/en/index.html. You may have found that the nearest airport to Holsbybrunn is in Jönköping (pronounced “yonshupping”). This is not the best option. You have to fly through Stockholm or Copenhagen regardless, and this airport has bad bus/train connections. Train Connections You can find train departures and arrivals, and buy your train tickets online by going to www.sj.se (Swedish train company's website). It is convenient to buy the ticket ahead of time, but be aware if your plane is delayed and you miss your train, you will lose your money.
