Twee studenten van het Leiden-Delft MSc-programma Industrial Ecology hebben een carbon footprint calculator gemaakt voor de website www.doemaarduurzaam.nl, de website waar de Nederlandse publieke omroep alle uitzendingen verzamelt over duurzaamheid.

This thesis studied in depth the energy use and CO2 emissions of the industrial sector in China.

Has the industrial sector in China effectively been decarbonizing in recent years, across different regions and subsectors, and is it plausible that it will reduce its CO2 emissions in conformity with national and internationally pledged emission goals?

How soil microbial composition impacts structure and composition of the aboveground plant and animal communities?

This thesis discusses the physical and chemical processes than influence the composition of forming planets.

My work focuses on a class of astronomical objects called protoplanetary disks.

This thesis examines the link between simple molecules and the underlying structure and chemistry within protoplanetary disks - the birthplaces of planets.

How to bring together different footprints into an integrated family and what are the synergies? What are the roles of inventory analysis and characterization in measuring individual footprints and how these affect a footprint family? How to benchmark environmental footprints against related planetary…
