Enabling Sustainable Lifestyles

The Policy Brief, Enabling Sustainable Lifestyles in a Climate Emergency offers insights into what forces shape our lifestyles and offers solutions such as choice editing that can help governments and businesses kickstart the transition to sustainable lifestyles.

This Policy Brief comes out after the IPCC WG3 report on mitigation, that highlighted the urgent need to address the demand-side. Both the Policy Brief and the IPCC report are clear, it is not the responsibility of individuals alone to reduce their emissions. Governments and companies need to step up and create the systemic changes needed. The brief offers concrete ways forward on what can be done by policymakers, in particular, to enable individuals to live more sustainably. The focus is put on transport, housing, food, and fashion.
