Linking Housing Policy, Housing Typology, and Residential Energy Demand in the United States

Peter Berrill et al.

Summary: This study examined the effects of three federal policies on the composition of housing stocks in the U.S., finding that multifamily housing can reduce energy demand and GHG emissions. Removing policy barriers could unlock significant potential for reducing residential energy demand and GHG emissions in the coming decades.

United States plastics: Large flows, short lifetimes, and negligible recycling

Jinghan Di et al.

Summary: This study highlights the challenge plastics pose to the environment and human health in the United States, with low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, and polypropylene being the most used plastics in production and manufacturing processes. Despite being widely used in packaging, consumer goods, and construction, the actual recycling rates of these plastics are low, presenting a significant obstacle to the sustainability goals of the country's circular plastics economy.
