中央商务区的持续向外发展一直是澳大利亚大多数城市的主要特征。然而，这一特点被认为是不可持续的，目前正在提出遏制外向增长的替代方案。墨尔本目前正在努力解决这个问题，同时试图减少人均温室气体排放量。住房面积、风格和位置是决定住宅部门排放量的三个主要因素。本文介绍了一种方法来评估这些因素对过去和未来可能的住宅开发形式在墨尔本的综合影响。分析发现，住房的位置和大小是决定能源使用和温室气体排放的主要因素。
The continued outward growth from a central business district has been the dominant characteristic of most cities in Australia. However, this feature is seen as unsustainable and alternative scenarios to contain the outward growth are being proposed. Melbourne is currently grappling with this issue while simultaneously trying to reduce per capita greenhouse gas emissions. Housing size, style and its location are the three principal factors which determine the emissions from the residential sector. This paper describes a methodology to assess the combined impact of these factors on past and possible future forms of residential development in Melbourne. The analysis found that the location of the housing and its size are the dominant factors determining energy use and greenhouse gas emissions.
