This project aims to find, whether there are consumers in the affluent Nordic countries, who have sustainable carbon footprints considering the 1.5-degree climate target and remaining carbon budget. Funded by RANNIS 2020-2024.
OpenGHGMap: Estimating CO2 Emissions for 108,000 European Cities. The OpenGHGMap project uses OpenStreetMap to estimate CO2 emissions at the city and county level across Europe.
This project aims to map out the distribution of regional carbon footprints, globally, in high detail. With the results of this research it will be possible to zoom in on the geodemographic hotspots driving a region’s carbon footprint. Funded by RCN, 2019- 2021.
Sustainable development pathways achieving Human well-being while safeguarding the climate And Planet Earth. The SHAPE project investigates interactions between options to mitigate climate change and the broader agenda of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. Funded by ERA-NET AXIS Call, 2019-2022.
Extending the service life of products may reduce material use and impacts from resource extraction. LASTING investigates the role of policies and regulations, production and design, and consumer practices for lifetime extension of household durables. Funded by NRC 2020-2023.
