Mindful consumption: a customer-centric approach to sustainability (2011, background): “As firms are forced to internalize the full environmental costs (e.g., under a Cap and Trade regime, and stricter environmental standards), the marginal supply-chain costs will go up significantly (Arrow et al. 2004; WEF 2009).”
Evaluating Projects and Assessing Sustainable Development in Imperfect Economies (2003, background): “2 For a more extensive discussion of the distinction between optimality and sustainability, see Arrow, Daily, et al. (2002) .”
Socio-demographics, implicit attitudes, explicit attitudes, and sustainable consumption in supermarket shopping (2016, background): “Evidence suggests that current consumption patterns in modern societies are unsustainable (Arrow et al., 2004; Daly et al., 2007), and policies are required to ensure that future generations have access to the same quantity and quality of consumption as present generations (Peattie, 2010; Vermeir &…”
