About
I'm interested in everything related to material stocks, their service-provisioning, and their impacts: what, where, when, which ones, what for, and why??Details
My research is focused towards understanding how the materials that accumulate in society in buildings, infrastructure, and other goods affect society, economy, and the environment. I study the flows and stocks of materials in human societies and the mutual interactions of material consumption, economic activity, and development.I'm an assistant professor at the CML (Institute of Environmental Sciences) in Leiden University, the Netherlands. Prior, I was a lecturer at the school of Sustainability, Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) Herzliya, Israel, and a postdoctoral associate at the Center for Industrial Ecology in the Yale School of Environment. I have a Ph.D. in Environmental Studies from Nagoya University.
I'm co-chair of the ISIE conferences committee and a board member of the SEM section.
My current research explores scenarios and forecasts of the accumulation of critical materials and construction materials accumulation in the global economies, and the environmental consequences of these trends.
