How Circular is the Global Economy?: An Assessment of Material Flows, Waste Production, and Recycling in the European Union and the World in 2005
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied a sociometabolic approach to assess the circularity of global material flows and found that only 4 gigatonnes per year (Gt/yr) of waste materials are recycled in the EU and only 1.5% of processed materials are used to provide energy and are thus not available for recycling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global socioeconomic material stocks rise 23-fold over the 20th century and require half of annual resource use
Fridolin Krausmann,Dominik Wiedenhofer,Christian Lauk,Willi Haas,Hiroki Tanikawa,Tomer Fishman,Tomer Fishman,Alessio Miatto,Heinz Schandl,Helmut Haberl +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that about half of all materials extracted globally by humans each year are used to build up or renew in-use stocks of materials, and over this period, global material stocks increased 23-fold, reaching 792 Pg in 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unequal household carbon footprints in China
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present distributional focused carbon footprints for Chinese households and use a carbon-footprint-Gini coefficient to quantify inequalities, finding that the urban very rich, comprising 5% of population, induced 19% of the total carbon footprint from household consumption in China.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present estimates of greenhouse gas emissions trends by sector from 1990 to 2018, describing the major sources of emissions growth, stability and decline across ten global regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the evidence on decoupling of GDP, resource use and GHG emissions, part II: synthesizing the insights
Helmut Haberl,Dominik Wiedenhofer,Doris Virág,Gerald Kalt,Barbara Plank,Paul E. Brockway,Tomer Fishman,Daniel Hausknost,Fridolin Krausmann,Bartholomäus Leon-Gruchalski,Andreas Mayer,Melanie Pichler,Anke Schaffartzik,Anke Schaffartzik,Tânia Sousa,Jan Streeck,Felix Creutzig +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, Wiedenhofer et al. evaluate empirical studies of decoupling related to final/useful energy, exergy, use of material resources, as well as CO2 and total GHG emissions.
