Última Differences in Preferences Towards the Environment: The Impact of a Gender, Age and Parental Effect AgEcon Torgler, Benno; Valinas, Maria A. Garcia; Macintyre, Alison. The paper investigates empirically the differences in preferences towards protection of the environment. Using seven different dependent variables to focus on the impact of age, gender and children we use a large micro data set covering data from 33 Western and Eastern European countries. The results indicate that women have both a stronger preference towards the environment and a stronger willingness to contribute. Moreover, we observe the tendency of a negative correlation between age and environmental preferences. However, a positive effect is visible once we focus on the impact of age on social norms (environmental morale). Finally, we were not able to observe that having children is positively correlated with a stronger preference towards the...

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/6371 Environmental Participation and Environmental Motivation AgEcon Torgler, Benno; Garcia-Valinas, Maria A.; Macintyre, Alison. We explore whether environmental motivation affects environmental behavior by focusing on volunteering. The paper first introduces a theoretical model of volunteering in environmental organizations. In a next step, it tests the hypothesis working with a large micro data set covering 32 countries from both Western and Eastern Europe using several different proxies to measure environmental motivation. Our results indicate that environmental motivation has a strong impact on individuals’ voluntary engagement in environmental organizations. A higher level of environmental motivation due to higher environmental moral standards may lead to a stronger voluntary involvement in environmental organizations.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/46652 Justifiability of Littering: An Empirical Investigation AgEcon Torgler, Benno; Garcia-Valinas, Maria A.; Macintyre, Alison. The paper investigates the relationship between environmental participation and littering. Previous empirical work in the area of littering is scarce as is evidence regarding the determinants of littering behavior. We address these deficiencies, demonstrating a strong empirical link between environmental participation and reduced public littering using European Values Survey (EVS) data for 30 Western and Eastern European countries. The results suggest that membership in environmental organizations strengthens commitment to anti-littering behaviour, thereby supporting improved environmental quality.
