The OECD has been working on the environment and household consumption and behaviour for a number of years. An on-going project on environmental policy and household behaviour is intended to help countries design policies which reduce the environmental impacts from household consumption patterns. In addition, there is a long-standing project on public procurement and the environment. Present work includes a review of the implementation of policies to reduce the environmental impacts of public sector consumption and expenditures in OECD Member countries.
