- Abstract
- This chapter discusses the results of a Material Flow Analysis of a medium-sized European urban area: Reading, UK. The motivation of the study is to determine in which ways urban areas such as Reading’s differ from their larger counter parts. We explore the trends in resource demands over the 5-year study period (2010 - 2015), with further insight on where Reading’s sustainability challenges lie. Finally, we explore spatial variations in resource consumption to gain insight into the local drivers of resource consumption.
