There is still a dearth of research when it comes to examining the role of a hotel's green marketing orientation practices in fostering individual green consumption behavior.…”

There are rare studies found on environmental perspectives in Pakistan, e.g., green entrepreneurship [62]; factors determining green behavior [63].…”
