Abstract:
The growing exasperating effect of climate change calls for an immensely augmented decline of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in all aspects of human life. Marketers have increasingly employed different strategies in attempt to change consumer behavior having a pivotal role in diminishing CO2 emissions. Yet, little work has been done to investigate the influencing factors that can develop sustainable consumption patterns. Drawing on Terror Management Theory (TMT), this research attempts to explore the relationships between omnipresent fear of death and consumers’ willingness to pay for carbon emissions.
