Biography
My work can be roughly divided into the following topics (current and most recent first): l Applied Sustainable Development Values-based Indicators Education for Sustainable Development Behaviour Change e.g. for recycling, low-carbon lifestyle l (Waste Stream Flows: quantification & modelling) l Household Waste: minimisation and increased recycling l Public Education: waste awareness l (End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV): materials recovery) l (Pyrolysis of Shredder Residues: related metal contaminations) l (Nuclear Structure Physics)
Research Interest
Applied Sustainable Development requires an overview across different disciplines as well as depth in a specialism. My specialism has been waste management but more recently it is Values-based Indicators (see www.ESDinds.eu and www.WeValue.org) which has applications in environmental topics, business, economics, government, civil society and education where it can be used to develop mission statements, prioritise, measure progress and cause deep behaviour change. Papers and working papers on these will be available online shortly.
