China is currently the world's largest emitter of carbon dioxide (CO2). China therefore has a
key role in global climate change mitigation. Policies and commitments are required to …

Abstract 'Energy sufficiency'involves reducing consumption of energy services in order to
minimise the associated environmental impacts. This may either be through individual …

Background. Around two-thirds of global GHG emissions are directly and indirectly linked to
household consumption, with a global average of about 6 tCO 2 eq/cap. The average per …

Global net anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during the last decade (2010–
2019) were higher than at any previous time in human history (high confidence). Since …

Property will cost us the earth The science on climate change has been clear for a very long
time now. Yet despite decades of appeals, mass street protests, petition campaigns, and …

Ecologically unequal exchange theory posits asymmetric net flows of biophysical resources
from poorer to richer countries. To date, empirical evidence to support this theoretical notion …

Populations in developed countries are ageing. However, the impact of senior citizens'
consumption on global carbon mitigation is poorly understood. Here we find that senior …

How much and what we eat and where it is produced can create huge differences in GHG
emissions. On the basis of detailed household-expenditure data, we evaluate the unequal …

CO2 emissions are unevenly distributed both globally and regionally within nation-states.
Given China's entrance into the new stage of economic development, an updated study on …

There are substantial differences in carbon footprints across households. This study applied
an environmentally extended multiregional input–output approach to estimate household …
