“…Although government regulation strongly reinforces innovative environmental actions [73], managers regard the regulation as the most evident external force that influence the environmental practices of their organizations [12]. Legally, organizations are expected to follow the government's environmental regulations or else they will face legal penalties and actions or even can be dismissed from the market [74].…”

This study investigates the impact of three institutional pressures, namely government, customer, and competitor pressures, on the environmental and operational performance of firms. These three institutional pressures are examined by implementing green supply chain management, considering the role of top management and studying social capital between buyers and suppliers in the supply chain. Data were collected through an electronic mail survey from buyer firms in the manufacturing industry in Korea. With 241 complete and usable responses, we used structural equation modeling to test our hypotheses. Our findings revealed that the majority of our hypotheses were supported, which is in line with the existing literature. However, the impact of coercive pressure on top management support and the impact of structural social capital on performance were found to be insignificant. The major contribution of our study is that it broadens the framework of green supply chain management (GSCM) by integrating major and recent constructs in the GSCM theory, while also providing instructive managerial implications through empirical evidence.

“…Historically, environmental protection has primarily been based on state-based environmental protection, such as legislation and prohibition. However, while environmental degradation today is increasingly perceived as being based on individual citizen or consumer choices, fewer argue that coercive and rigid policies will solve the problem [13][14][15][16][17]. Some advocate for measures primarily aimed at "guiding" citizens toward pro-environmental behavior, e.g., via information or education [18,19].…”

Should We Trust in Values? Explaining Public Support for Pro-Environmental Taxes

2013

Abstract:In this paper we are concerned with what explains public acceptance and support of environmental taxes. We examine findings in environmental psychology emphasizing that people's (environmental) value-orientation is the dominant driver determining individuals' support for pro-environmental policy instruments. We introduce a complementary model, mainly drawing upon findings in political science, suggesting that people's support for policy instruments is dependent on their level of political trust and their trust in other citizens. More specifically, we analyze whether political trust and interpersonal trust affect individuals' support for an increased carbon dioxide tax in Sweden, while checking their value orientation, self-interest, and various socio-economic values. We make use of survey data obtained from a mail questionnaire sent out to a random sample of 3,000 individuals in 2009. We find that apart from people's values, beliefs, and norms, both political trust and interpersonal trust have significant effects on people's attitudes toward an increased tax on carbon dioxide.

“…According to Murphy & Gouldson (2000), eco-organizational innovation generally does not reduce the environmental impact directly but facilitates the implementation of eco-marketing, eco-process, and eco-product innovation. Thus, hypotheses are formulated as follows:…”

This study investigates the eco-innovation variable which has the significant effect on creative industries center's performance of marble and natural stone craft sector in Tulungagung, Indonesia. The object of the study is the creative industries center with the non-renewable raw material. Mostly, the companies are in form of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) which is 'passive eco-innovator' and their eco-innovation variables have not been investigated before in terms of their influence on their performance. The respondents were 81 craftsmen taken from the population. The data were collected through questionnaires which were tested, processed and analyzed by using Consistent Partial Least Square (PLSc). The eco-innovation variables which significantly effect on innovative performance are eco-organizational innovation and eco-product innovation. Eco-process innovation and eco-marketing innovation don't directly affect on innovative performance, but its significant effect on eco-product innovation may influence innovative performance. Improving innovative performance will impact on financial performance through improvement of production performance, but market performance does not significantly affect financial performance. The findings of this study could be a reference for creative industries center's of marble and natural stone craft sector to prioritize which type of eco-innovation should be improved so that its impact on performance is more significant.
