“…This result for the Portuguese students is supported by the findings of the works of Johanisova, Crabtree andFranková (2012) andO'Neill (2012), as well as in Côrtes e Moretti (2013) who had found an Iberic tendency in favour of the economic growth control. It is important to consider that Portugal and Spain have already achieved a reasonable and adequate social standard of living, whereas for Latin América economic growth is stil a way to reduce the existent social differences.…”

Although undergraduate students have great access to environmental information, it does not mean that an environmental behavior is being developed. With the use of a scale applied to 1035 university students from Brazil and Portugal, it was examined how the environmental behavior of these students is structured. Using multivariate statistical techniques, it was verified that there is a similarity in the environmental behavior of both groups, with environmental beliefs being manifested by an opposition to the anthropocentric view. The environmental attitudes have the concerns related to the environment as their predecessor. These concerns influence the option to control economic growth, which is reinforced by the ecocentric point of view of the respondents and is manifested by the perspective of a decrease in production and in consumption as well as the promotion of welfare. Although there is a tendency, the option for green consumption is not fully accomplished.

Highlights We present a review of a selection of peer-reviewed degrowth articles. We identify inconsistencies between the degrowth discourse and proposals for action. Identified degrowth proposals are mainly national top-down approaches not local bottom-up ones. Proposals aim for sustainable scale and fair distribution over efficient allocation. Proposals should be analysed in combination to arrive at a degrowth policy mix. ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPTand analysing a set of proposals for action retrieved from a selection of articles. total of 128 peerreviewed articles focused on degrowth were reviewed, and 54 that include proposals for action were analysed. The proposals identified align with three broad goals: (1) Reduce the environmental impact of human activities; (2) Redistribute income and wealth both within and between countries; and (3) Promote the transition from a materialistic to a convivial and participatory society. The findings indicate that the majority of degrowth proposals are national top-down approaches, focusing on government as a major driver of change, rather than local bottom-up approaches, as advocated by many degrowth proponents. The most emphasised aspects in the degrowth literature are related to social equity, closely followed by environmental sustainability. Topics such as population growth and the implications of degrowth for developing nations are largely neglected, and represent an important area for future research. Moreover, there is a need for a deeper analysis of how degrowth proposals would act in combination.

“…The degrowth approach (or the less restrictive no growth approach) to the economics of sustainability argues that further economic growth is detrimental to the environment because growth of any sort implies a greater throughput of energy and materials (Kallis, 2011;Kallis, Kerschner, & Martinez-Alier, 2012). Some proponents of degrowth also point to the social benefits of a degrowth economy (Andreoni & Galmarini, 2013;Johanisova, Crabtree & Franková, 2013).…”
