Five sustainability issues Climate change Fuel poverty Food security Economic prosperity (growth or low growth?) Equity Housing is central to all five

Climate change Housing contributes to greenhouse gases (60 % of the 40% buildings contribute) Mainly fossil fuel based energy and embedded construction energy. Solution = Renewables Retrofit measures (insulation, Solar, PVs, CHP) Behaviour change (manage technology, avoid rebound)

Fuel poverty Closely related impact on consumer Fuel costs rising proportion of income Self-disconnection Risks for young and older persons Solution = Same as for climate change Targeted tariffs Specific benefits

Food security Precarious food supply Rising food costs International competition for staples Climate change contribution of food transport Solution= Local food production (industrial scale) Home production Seasonal diets

Economic prosperity The growth paradigm GDP measures wealth Measures of well-being Globalisation Solution = No or low growth economy (consolidation) Local economic development Labour not work

Equity The few consume – the many can’t Cost-based rationing Diverging life quality Vulnerability of older persons Solution = Carbon quotas Collective provision through co-operation But are we all in it together?

So what does it look like? New patterns of housing Housing + work = home Collective transport Collective heat and energy Multi-generational households Communal living
