O’Neill School Sustainability faculty research focuses on the interactions between human societies and the natural environment. Their research aims to develop policies and strategies that promote the sustainable use of natural resources, reduce environmental degradation, and mitigate climate change. They also engage natural sciences to address complex environmental issues and create sustainable solutions for the benefit of current and future generations.
Professor Doug Noonan analyzes environmental, urban, and cultural policies and the impact they have on people, whether it’s how clean places are, where parks are located, how cities approach infrastructure, or even what influences an area’s cultural scene.
In his new book, "Ecolabels, Innovation, and Green Market Transformation," Professor Doug Noonan explores the ways in which the private sector can help find complementary approaches to sound environmental policy.
