“…They may vary by demographics and psychological factors such as the individuals' identities (De young 1996; Whitmarsh et al 2017;Helm et al 2019). Jaska et al (2022) advised researchers to assess the pro-sustainable behavior while employing demographics and considering urban and rural residential areas. Michalik-Marcinkowska et al (2022) mentioned that place of residence is one of the most socio-demographic variables which help in conveying the context in which, for example, elders live and display their standard of living.…”

Throughout the consumer behavior's field, comprehending materialism across different countries has been of critical importance to transformative consumer research authors, marketers and policy makers. Materialism was discussed with its pros and cons in previous studies. However, present conflicting results exist across various contexts about its effects on socially responsible behavior. Nevertheless, the past studies included vast research on materialistic values, they embraced a limited research scope regarding the materialistic personality traits (MPT) and their influence on consumers' sustainable behavior. This study tests the validity and reliability of Belk's materialistic personality traits scale in Egypt, as one of the influential and mass consumer societies in the Arab region. It contributes towards understanding the influence of materialism as a personality trait on reduced consumption behavior and whether these dimensions vary among age, gender and place of residence. Large scale survey instrument was distributed across Egypt using quota non-random sampling which yielded 540 respondents. Plausible findings revealed significant effects of the materialistic personality traits on the reduced consumption behavior and indicated variances across the denoted demographics. This will help marketers and policy makers better describe and target the consumers' materialistic personalities through designing effective communication that develops a pro-sustainable consumption behavior to bring about a change for a sustainable future.

Purpose:The aim of the research was to identify the scope and intensity of proenvironmental behavior during tourist trips of Generation Z representatives. Methodology:The source literature in the field of responsible behavior was analyzed, especially in the area of tourist activity and sustainable tourism. The main part of the article is a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the survey results. The research includes identifying environmentally and socially responsible behaviors of Generation Z representatives (sample: 458 people). A comparison was made of the frequency of environmentally and socially responsible behavior in everyday surroundings and during tourist trips. For this purpose, the Pearson correlation index and the Mann-Whitney U test were used. Findings: Research shows that there is a significant difference between declarations and actual behavior. There was also an asymmetry in respondents' behavior at home and during tourist trips. It has been shown that women rate their environmentally and socially responsible behavior higher than men. The main reasons for the deficit of responsible behavior were, in the respondents' opinion, indifference and lack of role models. Practical implications: Research has shown that there is a need to clearly communicate to young consumers pro-ecological solutions that have been introduced in specific facilities or tourist reception areas. Originality: The article is an important voice in the scientific discussion on environmentally and socially responsible behavior during tourist trips. In the context of unfavorable climate changes, the scientific discussion on this topic is extremely topical.

“…The strategy assumes i.a. an increase in cohesion in the social, economic, environmental, and territorial dimensions through the concentration of legal, institutional, and investment activities [89][90][91][92][93][94][95]. The National Policy Framework for the Development of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure, which is the implementation of the EU Directive 2014/94/EU on the development of alternative fuels infrastructure, indicates that as a result of the implemented actions aimed at influencing consumer behavior towards the choice of low-emission transport sources, in 2020 and 2025 approximately 77,000 vehicles will be registered, and over 1 million electric cars (Table 1).…”

In the face of global challenges related to climate change and sustainable development, comparing attitudes and infrastructure in the field of electromobility and renewable energy sources in different countries becomes crucial. The question of differences and similarities between Poland and Germany in these areas sheds light on the unique challenges and opportunities that the two countries present to each other. The aim of the study is to understand these dynamics, which can contribute to the shaping of more effective policies and strategies for green energy and sustainable mobility. This study was conducted through a review of Polish and foreign literature, the use of the method of tabular comparisons, and the analysis of a questionnaire that was used. These complex methods combined both quantitative and qualitative analysis, which allowed for an in-depth understanding and comparison of attitudes and infrastructure related to electromobility and renewable energy sources in Poland and Germany. The study revealed significant differences and similarities between Poland and Germany in terms of electromobility and renewable energy sources. Germany shows a higher level of urbanization, a higher share of electric car ownership, and better charging infrastructure, while in Poland there is a strong belief in the key role of renewable energy sources. These findings may have implications for future green energy initiatives and policies in both countries. The study presents a complex picture of electromobility and renewable energy sources in Poland and Germany, showing clear differences in awareness, infrastructure, and attitudes. Germany seems to be more advanced in these areas, while Poland shows a strong commitment to renewable energy sources. These conclusions do not exaggerate the differences, but underline the need for a case-by-case approach to green energy strategies in both countries.
