Experiments on Empathy Conservation: Implications for Environmental Policy

Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: Environmental problems coupled with shrinking budgets for environmental agencies call for alternative strategies to improve the effectiveness of current and future environmental policies.Empathy conservation promises such an alternative approach.In this paper we summarize the findings from previous research testing various propositions of metaeconomics and dual-interest theory based on which we develop a conceptual framework for empathy conservation.Furthermore, we offer recommendations for using empathy conservation in environmental policy and programs.
