Abstract
Three factors are analysed: (1) citizen-consumers’ acceptance of green policy and planning that goes against short-term material benefits; (2) citizen-consumers’ participation in ‘green’ planning; and (3) citizen-consumer environmental activism. Initial citizen-consumer scepticism in 1 to 3 may change into support and engagement. The chapter shows how social motivation can facilitate such change.
