 rent ways of living and is based on research for our recent book written t
 ogether with Dr Fabricio Chicca from Victoria University of Wellington in 
 New Zealand\, called \"Everyday Lifestyles and Sustainability: the environ
 mental impact of doing the same things differently\". Much current work on
  sustainability seems to assume that the ways of life in the wealthy count
 ries can be sustained with a few technological changes\, but we have alway
 s questioned this assumption. We all do the same things\, we eat and sleep
 \, we go to work and play\, but how we individually do these things can ha
 ve a huge impact on the environment. The lecture discusses the environment
 al impact of how we live at present by looking at the different impacts of
  different ways of living\, based on a sample of the research done for the
  book which analysed a week in the lives of more than twenty households wo
 rldwide.     Professors Robert and Brenda Vale are architects\, writers an
 d pioneer researchers from England who wrote their first well known book o
 n sustainable design\, “The Autonomous House”\, in 1975. Following the
 ir design of award winning commercial buildings in the UK they went on to 
 build the UK’s first autonomous house in 1993 and the first zero-emissio
 ns settlement (the Hockerton Housing Project) in 1998. They have received 
 international awards for their work. In 1996\, the Vales immigrated to New
  Zealand. More recently they developed the Australian government’s Natio
 nal Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) which has now been
  put into operation. Their recent book\, “Time to Eat the Dog? The real 
 guide to sustainable living” resulted in death threats. Their latest boo
 ks include \"Living within a fair share Ecological Footprint\"\, which the
 y edited and which is a series of essays on what it means to live within a
  fair share of the earth's available renewable resources. Their other rece
 nt book is \"Architecture on the Carpet\" which is a history of toys and h
 ow they relate to what architects design.
