• Eight Tons of Material Footprint—Suggestion for a Resource Cap for Household Consumption in Finland (2014, result): “Compared to other studies on the environmental impact of consumption [47–49], this is a similar, though even slightly bigger, share of these central consumption components.”
• Consumers and their behavior: state of the art in behavioral science supporting use phase modeling in LCA and ecodesign (2016, background): “The integration of the behavioral component and modeling the opportunity for behavioral change into LCA studies could make the difference when dealing with the impact of products both on the environmental and human health-related domains (Cohen et al. 2010; Tukker et al. 2010).”

• Mapping the carbon footprint of EU regions (2017, background): “…with potential importance include characteristics of the dwelling stock (e.g. type, age and level of refurbishment), residential floor area, types of construction materials and fuels used and proportion of combined heat and power generation among others (Wilson et al 2013a, Tukker et al 2010).”
• Residential energy expenditures and the relevance of changes in household circumstances (2015, unknown): “Although environmental policies aiming at changing the behaviours and patterns of consumption (Chitnis et al., 2014; Tukker et al., 2010) and improving energy efficiency are useful and necessary (Dresner and Ekins, 2006), this research suggests that an additional positive environmental impact may re”
• Transforming Consumption: From Decoupling, to Behavior Change, to System Changes for Sustainable Consumption (2015, background): “To complicate things further, most situations encounter multiple biases, demonstrated by research that has shown that one-dimensional interventions often produce marginal benefits compared with synchronized treatments (111).”
