Sufficiency transitions: A review of consumption changes for environmental sustainability (2021, background): “…patterns of these high-consuming classes, though it is noteworthy that some scholars have extended the concept of sufficiency to include a minimum level of consumption that is socially sustainable and enables a good quality of life (Di Giulio and Fuchs, 2014; Spangenberg, 2014; Spengler, 2016).”
Why achieving the Paris Agreement requires reduced overall consumption and production (2018, background): “The more recent notion of ‘consumption corridors’ takes a needs-based approach in which needs—not desires—of all people on Earth are fulfilled by satisfiers that respect global limits (Di Giulio and Fuchs 2014; Fuchs 2017).”
Quantifying the potential for climate change mitigation of consumption options (2020, background): “There is a need for an open discussion about the overall scale of resource use and emissions and sustainable consumption corridors [128] towards remaining within planetary boundaries and satisfying human needs [34].”
