TL;DR: In this paper, a new trend of product-service systems (PSS) that has the potential to minimise environmental impacts of both production and consumption is emerging, and a theoretical framework for PSS is proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the concept of product-service systems as a strategy for reducing life cycle environmental impacts and explore drivers, barriers and opportunities for companies to shift towards providing use value through product service systems, and conclude that the PSS concept has a certain environmental potential dependant not only on how the system is organized, but also on the institutional and socio-cultural context.

TL;DR: Mont et al. as mentioned in this paper analyzed existing academic knowledge on nudge and choice architecture, and investigated lessons about effectiveness of applied nudge tools and approaches in consumption domains of energy use in the home, food and mobility, and discussed opportunities and limitations for devising more successful nudge in the three consumption domains.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse alternative consumption patterns from institutional and product service system perspectives, and suggest that the embodiment of sustainable consumption patterns into every day routines depends on institutional arrangements (regulatory and normative), on how the product service systems are designed and applied in practice, and on the socio-cultural background of the society the systems are implemented in.
