Indications show that the Swedish population is getting more aware of the environmental impact high meat consumption has. At the same time, the meat consumption in Sweden is breaking all previous records, and crossing the line for environmental sustainability by far. This resulted in us asking the question if this discrepancy between people’s environmental attitude and their meat consumption really existed. Where environmental attitudes are defined as the perception and attitude in line with the norm for a good environmental behavior. Regardless of the discrepancy, we want to make an understanding of why meat consumption looks the way it does. Using a combination of theories, we manage to construct a useful foundation to explain the actions of eating meat. From both rational and non-rational causes where a survey created to collect the information needed. Ratios of sex were created to match the even distributed population of Växjö, where the survey was handed out. The discrepancy between people’s environmental attitude and their meat consumption was found. People that consume more meat tend to be less positive to lower their intake of meat. But these persons are at the same time more aware of the consequences the impact that meat has on the environment. To future understand the consumption of meat we explain the behavior using one model constructed of Weber’s social theory of action.

En teknisk undersökning har gjorts i syfte att diskutera konflikten mellan dagsljus ochsolvärmelast i byggnader. I detta arbete studeras konflikten i samarbete med Metod arkitekterför projektet Blå Korset och dess val av solavskärmning som lösning till problemet.Ljusets påverkan har haft en stor betydelse i utvecklingen från hur vi använt ljuset för attbelysa och värma upp våra bostäder till att utveckla solceller och generera förnyelsebarenergi. Den tekniska undersökningen utreder problemet med hjälp av ett metodiskt diagrammed sex olika kategorier som kan tänkas ligga bakom problemet mellan solinstrålning ochsolvärmelast. Studien tar upp ljusets påverkan inom områden som hållbar utveckling,människa och miljö samt hur projektet Blå Korset skapar förutsättningar till att nå betygetGULD inom certifieringssystemet Miljöbyggnad.För att hitta en lösning till problemet krävs det att vi strävar efter hög kvalitativ utformning avljusets påverkan så att vi kan minska miljöbelastningen och effektivisera både byggnaden somprodukt men också byggnadens ändamål med rätt funktionalitet och planering. I resultatetredovisas behovet av att förbättra byggekologin i samverkan med att förbättra hållbartbyggande i större perspektiv än att enbart miljöcertifiera byggnader. Ett lösningsförslagpresenteras senare i kapitlet om Fortsatt arbete. Idén presenteras i syfte att inspirera ochskapa en efterfrågan på marknaden av förnyelsebar energi och produktutveckling inomenergiteknik. / A technical survey has been conducted to discuss the conflict between daylight and solar heatgain in buildings. In this thesis, the conflict is studied in collaboration with Metod arkitekterfor the Blue Cross project and its choice of solar shielding as a solution to the problem.The effect of light has had a significant impact on the development of how we used the lightto illuminate and warm up our buildings to developing solar cells and generate renewableenergy. The technical investigation investigates the problem using a methodological diagramof six different categories that might be behind the problem between solar radiation and solarheat gain. The study addresses the impact of light in areas that affect sustainable development,human beings and the environment as well as how the Blue Cross project creates theprerequisites for achieving the GOLDEN grade within certification system of Miljöbyggnad.To find a solution, we need to strive for high quality design of the light's impact so that wecan reduce the environmental impact and streamline both the building as a product, but alsothe purpose of the building with the right functionality and planning. The result shows theneed to improve building technology in cooperation to improve sustainable construction in abroader perspective than just environmental certification of buildings. A proposal of asoloution will be presented later in chapter “Continued Work”. The idea is presented in orderto inspire and create a demand for the market of renewable energy and product developmentin energy technology.
