| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
In our first year of research, we explored the impact of lifestyle differences, such as living locations and income levels, on carbon footprints across various income groups. This led to publications that enhance our understanding of household carbon emission reduction potentials. Our studies highlighted Japan's demographic challenges and the potential of electric vehicle adoption for emissions reduction. We also investigated carbon footprint inequality through household time use patterns, providing insights into sustainable living practices. This work lays the groundwork for policy discussions and lifestyle changes crucial for climate change mitigation, emphasizing the need for actionable strategies towards sustainability.

| Causes of Carryover |
分担者が、研究に必要な費用を予定よりも節約できたため次年度使用額が生じたことと、研究結果を発表する適切な会議がなかったためです。残額は24年度に使用予定です。
