Riverine inputs and direct discharges to Norwegian seas in 2009 have been estimated in accordance with the requirements of the OSPAR Commission. Due to the general lower water discharges in 2009 than in 2008, there was a reduction in all nutrient fractions in riverine loads in 2009. Long-term (1990-2009) trends show that nutrient loads have decreased in some Norwegian rivers, although nitrogen concentrations have increased in others. Direct discharges of nutrients from fish farming continue to increase. The riverine loads of all metals except mercury were lower in 2009 than in 2008. The copper discharges from fish farming continue to increase. Analyses of long term trends (1990-2009) in metal inputs showed that zinc and copper loads have been reduced in several rivers. Inputs of PCBs and the pesticide lindane in 2009 were insignificant.

Public catering has long traditions in Finland both on the sectors of working life and education. The historical background through lengthy and extensive negotiations since the beginning of 20th century about the role of public catering in education has cemented the position of free and regulated school meals. However, this vision of democratic nutrition of the 20th century is contested by a renewed vision of ecological meals of the 21st century. As a notion, catering for sustainability catches the orientation for change.Today, the orientation for sustainable development within schools and the consecutive „greening of public catering‟ seems to proceed in Finnish schools. The cross-curricular theme of sustainable development breeds focus on local and organic food in education and catering. Environmental or sustainability certification of a school may introduce organic food into school catering. The caterers have interest in organic food too. They often prefer local and organic, even local organic food and may use a certification scheme to increase the visibility of their orientation. However, more often than not, organic food is not used as a visible staple in Finnish school catering.This research aimed at understanding the current situation in Finnish school catering and education for sustainable development (ESD) in ways enabling suggestions for development and increased use of organic food in school catering. This qualitative inquiry into the social dynamics of public catering and ESD was enabled by the co-operative educational institutes across educational levels and their rectors, teachers, caterers and young people, whose in-depth interviews and focus groups produced data about organic food in schools within the framing of sustainable development.According to this research, the caterers did exert social force for sustainability by expressing their professional identity for sustainability. This identity could convey both positive and negative features for caterers, depending on whether they received support from their management, organizational strategies or suppliers. The co-operation with their supply chains as well as switching into organic supply chains offered options for upgrading their catering activities. In this research, the use of organic milk as a staple was identified to have potential for catering for sustainability. A mediated dialogue was conducted with caterers about the quality of organic milk and its suitability to school catering. The barriers of the use of organic milk were not only economic, and an intermediate mediating strategy for sustainability was suggested for caterers in terms of the use of organic food. Furthermore, caterers were understood not to be only pleased about the organic message but it was seen to evoke critical response. This response was analysed and new ways of communication about organic food were suggested.Finnish ESD (education for sustainable development) in basic and general upper secondary education was reviewed and it was found to present ambitious aims through both disciplinary and cross-curricular themes. An entity within ESD, regarding food system and including organic food in particular, could be identified as an evolving topic of food education for sustainability (FES). There were committed teachers who made big efforts to promote it and who actually implemented the whole school approach for this aim. The young people also considered organic food as an embodiment of more sustainable food system, which, however, also raised extensive ambiguity in need of more detailed addressing. Furthermore, there were young people who expressed commitment mainly on ethical, animal welfare and health grounds for organic food. Young people also viewed organic quality as an ambiguous one and they demonstrated conditional commitment. A negative commitment by young people meant that they rather chose conventional food. Finally, suggestions for stakeholders in educational contexts included focus on FES and introduction of organic food through concerted efforts into the school catering for sustainability.

I perioden 2006-2009 er det i norske gartnerier gjenomfort registrering av soppsjukdommar i begonia (Begonia x hiemális og Begonia x cheimántha). Både kjente og nye patogen er påvist. Spesielt store utfall er registrert ved åtak av to nye arter: Fusarium foetans og Phytophthora taxon niederhauserii

Ny, alvorleg sjukdom funnen på lauvtre i eit skogholt i Stavanger I 2009 vart det funne mørke flekkar på stammane på fleire spisslønn, ein bøk og ei bjørk ved Byhaugen i Stavanger. Slike flekkar er typiske symptom ved angrep av Phytophthora, og vert ofte omtala som blødande sår. På dei to førstnemnde artane vart det stadfesta at skadane skuldast rotråte på grunn av Phytophthora plurivora. Sjukdomen er kjent frå fleire land i Europa, der han vert sett på som ein stor trussel både i skog og andre økosystem. I oktober i år vart det også isolert Phytophthora frå bøk med liknande symptom i Bergen, men desse isolata er enno ikkje identifiserte til art.
