COBISS.SI-ID: 21563878In order to find out what is the state of corporate environmentalism in Slovenia, a country in transition, we surveyed a large sample of Slovenian manufacturing companies. Our results show that none of the identified company clusters exhibits qualities attributed to fully advanced corporate environmentalism. In such circumstances regulatory pressures and top management’s personal preferences still play a major role in motivating corporate environmentalism.

COBISS.SI-ID: 18510310Consumers have an important role in environmental protection, so what drives environmentally conscious consumer behavior is also important. We recognized concepts of concern, information about environmental impact, and willingness to act as key predictors of environmental behaviors. This paper proposes an extended model of environmentally conscious consumer behavior in which prosocial status perceptions moderate behavior. In the model, concern is positively related to willingness, and both willingness and information are positively related to behavior. The model was verified on a sample of 319 respondents. Status increases the positive association between willingness and behavior but not between information and behavior.
