Shelie Miller’s research uses life cycle assessment and scenario modeling to identify environmental problems before they occur. By proactively understanding the environmental issues of emerging technologies, we can identify a greater number of options and more creative solutions to avoid or reduce negative consequences. Miller’s research group works on a variety of food-related topics, including bioenergy and agriculture, comparing prepared mealkits to grocery store meals, and understanding the full consequences of introducing refrigeration into the food supply chain.
