• Burden of proof: A comprehensive review of the feasibility of 100% renewable-electricity systems (2017, background): “Viable means that the system is not only feasible, but also realistic within the socio-economic constraints of society [40].”
• Transforming Consumption: From Decoupling, to Behavior Change, to System Changes for Sustainable Consumption (2015, background): “Research has demonstrated that efficiency gains may be subject to rebound effects, whereby increases in efficiency actually lead to increases in product use, which dampens or even swamps efficiency benefits (42, 69).”
• On the political feasibility of climate change mitigation pathways: Is it too late to keep warming below 1.5°C? (2019, background): “On the demand side, the sustained energy intensity improvements implied in many stringent decarbonization scenarios are historically unprecedented (Loftus et al., 2015).”
