• Consumers and their behavior: state of the art in behavioral science supporting use phase modeling in LCA and ecodesign (2016, background): “Additionally, differences in use phase could be linked to variability in behavior due to, e.g., lifestyle (Heinonen and Junnila 2011; Bin and Dowlatabadi 2005), geographical context (Schlegel et al. 2012), income (Girod and de Haan 2010), age and demographic aspects (Zagheni 2011) etc. BS may…”
• How social norms are often a barrier to addressing climate change but can be part of the solution (2020, background): “In the USA, for instance, some estimates hold that roughly 80% of the energy used and CO2 emitted is the result of consumer demand and supporting industries (Bin & Dowlatabadi, 2005).”
• More or Better? A Model for Changes in Household Greenhouse Gas Emissions due to Higher Income (2010, background): “In the literature, several studies have found a high correlation between household income and energy requirement or carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions (Vringer and Blok 1995; Pachauri and Spreng 2002; Reinders et al. 2003; Bin and Dowlatabadi 2005; Cohen et al. 2005; Lenzen et al. 2006).”
• Lifestyle Practices and Proenvironmental Technology (2012, background): “When accounting for direct and indirect effects, the majority of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions are the consequences of consumer behavior (Shui and Dowlatabadi, 2005).”
• A comparison of carbon calculators (2008, background): “According to Shui and Dowlatabadi (2005), consumers in aggregate were directly responsible for 28% of US energy consumption and 41% of US CO2 emissions in the year 1997.”
• Pursuing More Sustainable Consumption by Analyzing Household Metabolism in European Countries and Cities (2005, background): “Studies have also been performed to determine the energy requirements and/or the CO2 emissions related to household consumption in several other countries (Cohen et al. 2005; Pachauri 2004; Kim 2002; Bin and Dowlatabadi 2005; Munksgaard et al. 2000; Reindersetal.2003;Lenzen1998).Inthesestudies, en”
