Abstract

This study reviewed 82 empirical articles on sustainable consumption published during 1997 to 2014. The review explored different factors affecting sustainable consumption decision-making. The factors were categorized as personal, behavioural and socio-cultural. A taxonomic synopsis of the findings is presented in an extensive table. The paper identifies various prevalent motives, facilitators and barriers affecting sustainable consumption decision-making and provides possible explanations for inconsistencies observed in consumers' sustainable consumption behaviour. A conceptual framework is proposed that considers various motives, attitudes and barriers and explains how they are related to sustainable consumption behaviour.
