TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the importance of income growth in a cross-country analysis of sustainable household consumption from a global perspective, using per capita energy requirements as an indicator of environmental pressure.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel application of input-output analysis is used to statistically map out average levels of generation of unwanted solid and liquid waste materials and also greenhouse gases along manufacturing supply chains for the final demand products of manufacturing industries in Japan.

TL;DR: The baseline scenario shows that the life cycle CO/sub 2/ emissions for an SPS system per unit of energy generated are almost the same as the emissions for nuclear power systems and are much less than the life cycles for LNG-fired and coal-fired power generation systems.

TL;DR: It is shown that estimates for sector-specific greenhouse gas emissions are often required for various types of corporate as well as public policy analyses in both domestic and international contexts, and that modeling and estimation methods based on input-output analyses are suitable for the types of research goals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present sector-specific estimates for greenhouse gas emissions from multi-stage production processes in a multi-sector context and argue that these estimates are often required for various types of corporate as well as public policy analyses in both domestic and international contexts.
