Based on a review of empirical studies, this book analyses the determinants of environmental behaviour in five key areas where households exert pressure on the environment: energy use, transport, waste generation, food consumption and water use. The book widens the scope of previous analysis by examining the effect of various types of environmental policy instruments and by considering differences in environmental behaviour among households (e.g. age, income, education). It concludes by examining main policy implications for the choice and the design of instruments.
