Synopsis

The root cause of environmental problems is human. Human socio-economic behavioural changes affect the environment. Although the level of environmental awareness is high, this awareness is not translated into actions or behaviours in a broader sense. Thus, the extent of and influences on environmentally ethical behavior (EEB) among consumers are particularly important issues to be discussed due to a mounting problem caused by domestic solid waste. This book, therefore, provides an analysis of the influence of contextual aspects comprises of social, religious, economic and political on EEB which consisted of pre-cycling, reuse and recycling. By approaching the influence of contextual aspects on EEB as a discussion of environmental ethics in the field of environmental management this book is able to explain the contextual aspects? influences on EEB not only in terms of what, how and why but also demonstrates the extent of such influences on EEB. The analysis should help to shed some light on the issue, and should be especially useful to community members, managers, academics and policy makers.
