Meditating for the Planet: Effects of a Mindfulness-Based Intervention on Sustainable Consumption Behaviors Geiger, Sonja M. ; Fischer, Daniel ; Schrader, Ulf ; Grossman, Paul - \ 2020
Environment and Behavior 52 (2020)9. - ISSN 0013-9165 - p. 1012 - 1042. attitude–behavior gap - intervention study - material values - mindfulness - pro-environmental behavior - sustainable consumption - well-being
Recent research suggests that mindfulness may foster sustainable consumption behavior through the reduction of the so-called attitude–behavior gap, or by weakening material values while increasing subjective well-being. The current controlled longitudinal study tested these propositions by employing a sustainability-adapted mindfulness-based intervention (sMBI) to two different samples (n = 60 university students; n = 71 employees). Although the intervention successfully enhanced mindful experiences in both samples, we found no evidence for neither direct effects on sustainable consumption behavior or related attitudes, nor for the reduction of the attitude–behavior gap. However, the intervention led to greater well-being in the student sample and suggested a decline of materialistic value orientations in both samples. The results blunt previous claims about potential causal effects of mindfulness practice on sustainable consumption behavior. Nevertheless, they indicate that the sMBI affects behavior-distal variables, such as material values and well-being, which in turn could influence consumption behavior in the long run. |

Vorig jaar hebben we ervaren dat de eikenprocessierups onze gezondheid en ons welbevinden aanzienlijk kan schaden. Wat is een effectieve aanpak om de overlast te beheersen zonder onnodig hoge beheerkosten te maken? De ‘Leidraad beheersing eikenprocessierups’ die onlangs werd uitgebracht, geeft antwoorden.

Het leefbaar houden van steden en dorpen is een belangrijke uitdaging van deze tijd. Daarnaast zorgt klimaatverandering voor een toenemende vraag naar slimme oplossingen om in te spelen op extremere weersomstandigheden. Het vergroenen van steden en dorpen biedt niet alleen een oplossing voor klimaatgerelateerde problemen, maar bevordert ook het woonplezier en de gezondheid van bewoners. Dit dossier laat zien hoe slimme groene oplossingen kunnen helpen bij de inrichting en het beheer van woongebieden ter bevordering van de leefbaarheid en klimaatadaptatie. Thema's zoals biodiversiteit, adaptatie en mitigatie komen aan bod.

Exploring the co-benefits (and costs) of home gardening for biodiversity conservation Raymond, Christopher M. ; Diduck, Alan P. ; Buijs, Arjen ; Boerchers, Morrissa ; Moquin, Robert - \ 2019
Local Environment 24 (2019)3. - ISSN 1354-9839 - p. 258 - 273. Ecosystem services - nature - place attachment - restoration - sense of place - well-being
Despite growing evidence pointing to the multiple benefits of home gardening, few studies have considered the health and well-being benefits perceived by gardeners who are principally motivated by biodiversity conservation (i.e. home gardening for biodiversity conservation). This study explores the environmental, social and economic co-benefits (and costs) of home gardening for biodiversity conservation in the City of Winnipeg, Canada. A total of 42 semi-structured interviews (30–60 min each) were conducted with 50 home gardeners who were formally certified or locally recognised for undertaking multiple gardening activities that promote biodiversity conservation. Thematic analysis revealed that study participants self-reported a range of environmental, psychological, physiological and social outcomes associated with their home gardening experiences. Despite home gardening often being a solitary activity, most gardeners valued the multiple forms of social interaction that occurred during important social events in their garden, or when connecting with passers-by. Home gardeners also cited benefits related to connection to nature and place attachment; attention restoration; reduced stress and anxiety; improved mood; satisfaction and pride; increased self-esteem and courage to do things differently in life; and, important education or learning opportunities. However, conflicts relating to the nexus between biodiversity and perceived tidiness of gardens emerged, which raise important ethical and social justice issues for sustainability planning. We compare key insights to the benefits (and costs) of community gardening and make some recommendations for future research, including how to engage more disadvantaged groups in gardening for conservation. |
