Intention of coastal communities to support climate change mitigation policies for fish and marine ecosystem preservation

Abstract: Purpose This paper aims to assess the willingness of individuals living in coastal communities affected by climate change to financially support mitigation policies towards the preservation of marine ecosystems and fish resources and to identify the key drivers of their behaviour. Design/methodology/approach A survey was carried out involving 994 people living in three main Italian coastal communities. To investigate the main factors affecting Italian coastal communities’ willingness to pay (WTP) to support … Show more

“…In sport, Wicker and Thormann (2021) suggest the development of well-being through proenvironmental actions. In the Italian coastal communities, the individuals' attitudes towards climate change, social pressures and perception have a significant role in developing their intention to support mitigation policies (Galati et al, 2021). Among higher education institutes of Portugal, an online survey by Correia et al (2021) claims no significant effect of students' knowledge and environmental attitude on their pro-environmental intentions (PEIs).…”

“…In order to help people better imagine this future, it may therefore be beneficial to communicate specifically about local or national climate impacts. Evidence suggests that such scenarios wherein, for example, sea level rise is modelled and communicated to coastal communities, may lead to higher acceptance of mitigation measures (Degeling & Koolen, 2021;Galati et al, 2021). Similar strategies in communication about specific places -even if they are not people's own communities -might help increase affinity for places impacted currently or in the immediate future, which the close-ended questionnaire data indicated to be linked to concern.…”
