Dear colleagues,
I’d like to draw your attention to an interesting paper on shared laundry services in a developing country context.
Retamal, M. and Schandl, H. (2017), Dirty Laundry in Manila: Comparing Resource Consumption Practices for Individual and Shared Laundering. Journal of Industrial Ecology. http://rdcu.be/DN8T/
The results of the analysis belie a simple correlation between shared services and class as well as shared services and environmental impact.
Sincerely,
Reid Lifset
