Abstract

This article critically examines the existing literature on pro-environmental behavior, focusing on essential theories, empirical evidence, and cross-disciplinary implications. The study delves into the influence of individualistic, societal, and circumstantial factors in shaping pro-environmental behaviors, drawing insights from prominent theoretical models. Moreover, it thoroughly examines the effectiveness of economic incentives and non-market approaches in stimulating pro-environmental activities, emphasizing the need for integrating behavioral economics and social psychology within the field of environmental studies. The paper concludes by identifying potential areas for future research, including the role of digital technologies, climate change communication, and social networks in fostering sustainable societies. The primary objective of this study is to equip researchers and practitioners with the necessary knowledge to develop effective strategies for promoting sustainability.
