| Abstract: |
This is a brief abstract of the paper. Whist there is increasing importance of sustainable consumption, current understanding on how consumers in emerging markets respond to sustainable consumption is very limited. Thus this paper focuses on examining the mediating role of pro-environmental self-identity on sustainable consumption behaviour (buying and curtailment) in two emerging markets: China and Poland. This paper critically reviews how pro-environmental self-identity may be activated by values, social desirability, consumer effectiveness and knowledge. Findings are reported and implications are discussed. This project is funded by the University of Gloucestershire Business School, UK. |
