The role of high-socioeconomic-status people in locking in or rapidly reducing energy-driven greenhouse gas emissions
People with high socioeconomic status disproportionally affect energy-driven greenhouse
gas emissions directly through their consumption and indirectly through their financial and …

The carbon footprint of household energy use in the United States
Residential energy use accounts for roughly 20% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in
the United States. Using data on 93 million individual households, we estimate these GHGs …

[HTML][HTML] The limits of energy sufficiency: A review of the evidence for rebound effects and negative spillovers from behavioural change
Abstract 'Energy sufficiency'involves reducing consumption of energy services in order to
minimise the associated environmental impacts. This may either be through individual …

Carbon footprints of 13 000 cities
While it is understood that cities generate the majority of carbon emissions, for most cities,
towns, and rural areas around the world no carbon footprint (CF) has been estimated. The …

City-integrated renewable energy for urban sustainability
To prepare for an urban influx of 2.5 billion people by 2050, it is critical to create cities that
are low-carbon, resilient, and livable. Cities not only contribute to global climate change by …

Consumers underestimate the emissions associated with food but are aided by labels
Food production is a major cause of energy use and GHG emissions, and therefore diet
