Senior author Prof Manfred Lenzen was quoted extensively in the Australian report by ABC News.
- 5 August 2021, An article in Cosmos, which was widely syndicated, reported on a Comment in Nature Energy calling for post-growth climate mitigation scenarios. Prof Manfred Lenzen of ISA was a co-author of the piece lead-authored by Jason Hickel of the London School of Economics.

The article states that "What the climate negotiators of the 1990s did not know at the time was that a parallel and simultaneous set of global trade agreements would create a glaring loophole in their efforts to contain the carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to climate change". In many cases, countries that have claimed net reductions in carbon emissions see those reductions fully - or mostly - wiped out once the carbon loophole is taken into account. About 25 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions passed through this glaring "carbon loophole", one of the most critical and under-discussed problems in international climate policy circles.

- 7 May 2018, ISA led research, in collaboration with the University of Queensland and National Cheng Kung University, was published in Nature Climate Change. This study provides a world-first quantification of the carbon footprint of global tourism. The findings suggest that global tourism is responsible for 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The research was widely cited in the press, eg.

- 16 September 2013, A petition aimed at phasing out all purse seine fishing within the Cook Islands' Exclusive Economic Zone has been handed to Prime Minister Henry Puna by environmentalists and local residents of Mauke island, Andrew and June Hosking. Andrew and June participated in ISA's Sustainable Islands Project. The petition was signed by almost 100% of Mauke's voting population.
"This matter must go beyond politics and must be tackled globally. The Cook Islands, as small as we are, are huge in ocean area, we have a voice internationally and mustn't be shy to use it. The Pacific holds around 12% of the world's population but 50% of its fish stocks. The big nations can no longer provide for their own populations, so now look to us for their fish supply.
We have a massive bargaining chip here, bigger than oil. We have a responsibility to ensure there are fish remaining not just for the Pacific, but for the world." said Andrew Hosking in response to the overwhelming success of Mauke's petition. Future plans are about extending the petition outside Mauke and the Cook Islands.
