Environmental education often advocates for individual pro-environmental behavior—which, while beneficial to a degree, fails match the large scale of today's capitalism-fueled socio-ecological challenges. Rather, collective action holds promise as means large-scale changes required in Capitalocene. These actions can take shape encouraging group uptake behaviors (collective non-activist behaviors) or through fostering system change activist behaviors). This study works understand how well environmental literacy framework combined with theory planned behavior predicts behaviors, using North Carolina high school students population. We find that, these models effectively predict student engagement (adjusted R2 = 0.39), they are less accurate at predicting 0.17) and 0.10). Thus, more research theory-building needed what drives among youth beyond.

COVID-19 has altered human cognition and changed the cultural values of society. However, there not been much debate among scholars about whether these above changes have led to an increase in pro-environmental behavior (PEB) Chinese consumers.A comprehensive model was developed based on affective event theory. An online questionnaire distributed, 501 usable questionnaires were collected. In addition, two complementary approaches employed: partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) necessary condition analysis (NCA).The PLS-SEM results showed that risk perception, nostalgia, awe nature, attitude found a positive effect PEB; moderating power distance belief (PD) between nostalgia (NO), (AT) PEB confirmed. According NCA results, AT NO are conditions for consumers.This study provides deeper insight into understanding consumers' context through combined use NCA.
