This research paper presents initial findings from the Klimatkalkylatorn dataset, an online carbon footprint calculator developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and WWF Sweden. Based on self-reported data from over 800,000 users, the study analyzes variations in household carbon footprints across Sweden, examining the influence of geography, household size, and income levels to provide a more granular view than national statistics.

This research paper synthesizes emission mitigation potentials across food, housing, transport, and other consumption domains, identifying 61 options with positive mitigation potential based on a meta-review of 53 studies.

This policy brief by the Stockholm Environment Institute examines the difference between territorial and consumer-based greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Scotland between 1992 and 2004. It argues that while territorial emissions have decreased, Scotland's carbon footprint has grown due to an increased reliance on imported goods produced abroad, suggesting that current accounting methods mask the true scale of Scotland's climate impact.
