Civic Cooperation, Pro-Environment Attitudes, and Behavioral Intentions

چکیده
Using data from approximately 30,000 individuals in over 30 countries, we find evidence that an individual’s pro-environment attitudes and behavioral intentions to pay higher taxes to protect the natural environment are positively associated with her attitudes toward civic cooperation. The influence of civic cooperation on environmental attitudes varies with the level of development and the environmental quality of the country in which an individual lives. Our results indicate that civic cooperation is key to promoting pro-environment attitudes in low income countries.
