“…Companies that use green marketing tend to find it easier to increase their brand image (Sohail, 2017., Nguyen & Nguyen, 2018., Ridwan, Fauzi & Bafadhal, 2018). With increasing consumer awareness of the environment, the selection of green products has become part of the lifestyle for green consumers (Genoveva & Syahrivar, 2020., Liu, Teng & Han, 2020. The trend of companies using green marketing to strengthen their brand image has become a positive issue among companies (Yeng & Yanitzar, 2016., Wang, Chen & Chen, 2016).…”

“…In addition, factors such as individual characteristics and wealth have been verified to influence the public's willingness to participate [25,26]. Significantly, as critical driving factors of residents' pro-environmental behaviors, environmental awareness and knowledge have gradually attracted widespread scholarly attention [27][28][29][30]. In this regard, it can be assumed that public participation in RPER programs is also affected by environmental awareness and knowledge.…”

The rapid expansion of rubber plantations in Asian countries has led to various environmental problems. Therefore, local governments are implementing rubber plantation ecological restoration (RPER) programs as an essential solution. However, such programs can be implemented only if residents are intensely involved. Based on a survey of 521 urban households in Hainan Province, China, this study investigates the effect of environmental awareness and knowledge on residents’ willingness to participate in RPER programs. We employ a double-hurdle (DH) model to estimate residents’ participation in two stages. First, we determine whether residents wish to participate or not (PN). Then, we measure residents’ degree of willingness to participate (DWP). The results show that residents’ environmental awareness has a significant positive effect on whether they wish to PN but has no impact on their DWP. By contrast, residents’ environmental knowledge has a significant positive effect on whether they wish to PN and their DWP. The moderating effect shows that residents’ environmental knowledge significantly weakens the positive effects of their environmental awareness on whether they wish to PN. Moreover, residents’ age, educational level, employment, and place of residence substantially influence their DWP. The findings in this study can provide useful insights for policymaking on improving rubber plantation ecosystems.

“…Environmental knowledge is a driving factor that influences people's sensitivity to environmental problems around them and leads them to make choices and decisions to solve the problems [15,20]. Perceived consumer effectiveness (PCE) is considered as one of the measurement methods to measure perceived sustainable behavior [21,22].…”

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In view of global warming issues, the Taiwan government has implemented environmental-related policies and measures for sustainable development through promoting “carbon labeling” in recent years. Many studies related to carbon labeling have been conducted after its promotion, but the studies on the relationship of subjective knowledge or perceived knowledge on carbon labeling, perceived consumer effectiveness (PCE), and willingness to buy the products are still limited. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship of subjective knowledge on carbon labeling, consumer perception, and willingness to buy carbon label products, with a case study of packaged tea products in Taiwan. The respondents were Taiwanese adults aged 18 years old and over, who have experience of buying packaged tea. The research was conducted by survey method using non-probability sampling method at convenience retail stores i.e., 7-Eleven and Family Mart. The result showed that (1) the consumers with high subjective knowledge have high willingness to purchase packaged tea products with carbon labels, consumers with high PCE have high subjective knowledge of carbon labeling, and consumers with high PCE have high willingness to buy carbon-labeled packaged tea products; (2) there is a positive linear relationship of subjective knowledge and PCE toward purchase intention of carbon label; and (3) a significant positive correlation between subjective knowledge, PCE, and willingness to buy packaged tea beverage products with carbon labels for the female respondents.
