Abstract: | This article describes the results of several research programmes that together aim at the development and application of methodologies that enable the study of long-term environmental effects (mainly related to the total household energy demand) of household consumption in relation to other economic sectors; this is usually described as the household metabolism approach. In this article the authors use energy consumption and CO2 emissions as proxies for long-term impacts on the environment. |
