Abstract

This study examines the economic effects of voluntary commitments to a more sustainable individual lifestyle. In particular, it investigates the crucial nexus between environmental factors and health and well-being outcomes. It promises to generate important insights into this multi-faceted relationship by focussing on a hitherto understudied topic, i.e. whether the housing market and particularly the spatial variation in house prices may play a decisive mediating role for the quality of the surrounding built and natural environment. This project seeks to enhance our understanding of the relationship between individual environmental attitudes and economic outcomes but also to inform policies in the public health, urban planning and local economic development arenas.
