“…It has become a relevant topic for environmentalists in order to promote a change of behavior towards more sustainable lifestyles (Seyfang, 2006). Thus, a significant relationship among environmental citizenship and activism opens opportunities in the public sphere to create the emergence of a diverse civil society that is active in different domains (Fadaee, 2017), including consumption. Therefore, non-activist behaviors in the public sphere of environmental citizenship might affect collective actions and active involvement in organizations and demonstrations, as in the case of environmental activism (Stern, 2000).…”

This research compared, through a multigroup analysis, green consumption among young adult consumers in Mexico and Spain. Thus, the effect of their connection to nature, environmental citizenship, activism and environmental social identity on green consumption was analyzed. A quantitative, explanatory, and cross-sectional methodology was developed, which involved the application of an instrument to 447 Mexican and 120 Spanish young adults. The primary results related to green consumption did not suggest different environmental behavior patterns between the samples. When combined, it was found that environmental social identity and environmental citizenship did not always translate into green consumption. However, young adult consumers who were more connected to nature were more likely to consume eco-friendly products.

“…In the sphere of everyday life, personal experiences, emotions, and affects also underpin how young people enact their environmental citizenship and political agency (Fadaee 2017;Nairn 2019). Bartos (2013) claims that children's environmental engagements and relationships are influential in either discouraging or encouraging an environmental ethic, implying that personal experiences of the environment are linked to active environmental citizenship.…”

Recent years have seen a critical shift in young people’s political participation, as young people around the world have mobilized to demand greater climate actions. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork that consist of participant observation and 47 qualitative interviews with 15–16-year-olds residing in rural and urban areas in northern Finland, the paper contributes rural, regional and mundane perspectives on the topic of young people’s environmental politics. The paper sheds light on the myriad of ways in which young people practice environmental politics and construct their environmental citizenship and also discusses young people’s political action in relation to the friction and resistance their participation stirs up in the local communities. Although promoting active citizenship is a stated goal of the Finnish education system, young people’s active participation in mundane and local environmental politics is not always embraced in local communities. The paper argues for better recognition of and support for young people’s everyday environmental politics and for youth participation as a way to spark wider social, cultural, and political change.

“…This is the direction which a large part of the critical environmental citizenship literature is also heading (e.g. Gilbert and Phillips, 2003;Kurtz, 2005;Agyeman and Evans, 2006;MacGregor 2006;Gabrielson, 2008;Harris, 2011;Repak 2011;Fadaee, 2017).…”

© 2020 selection and editorial matter, Simin Davoudi, Richard Cowell, Iain White and Hilda Blanco. Green citizenship has received growing interest in the past two decades given the current grave ecological concerns and an increasing awareness that environmental degradation and change implicates directly on the rights and responsibilities of citizens. Yet as a field, it still involves static and instrumentalist conceptions of citizenship and the environment. In this chapter, we propose more dynamic, transnational and inclusive notions of lived green citizenship, drawing on feminist theorisation and citizenship conceptions introduced by Engin Isin. We argue for a greater acknowledgement of spatial relationality and the multiple scalar and practised dimensions of citizenship in order to recognise the diversity of citizens represented in society, and their experiences and practices. We suggest that this broader understanding of green citizenship provides access to trans-local and networked thinking for environmental planning, citizenship and political theory, as well as highlighting the importance of lived experiences of citizenship.
