Jacob's research work has involved constructing large-scale global economic-environmental models. These models are used to trace environmental impacts along complex global supply chains, and investigate the link between environmental impacts, consumption and trade. Jacob’s research interests include waste and the circular economy, the carbon footprints of cities, freight transport and sustainable healthcare.
