Does Environmental Information Disclosure Benefit Waste Discharge Reduction? Evidence from China (2014, background): “Since the implementation of TRI in 1986, air and water emissions have been significantly reduced (Konar and Cohen 1997; Bennear and Olmstead 2008; Montes-Sancho and Delmas 2010).”
Eco-Labeling Strategies and Price-Premium (2014, unknown): “The provision of information is often presented as an effective alternative to traditional environmental regulation (Delmas et al., 2009; Jin & Leslie, 2003; Kennedy, Laplante, & Maxwell, 1994; Khanna, Quimio, & Bojilova, 1998; Konar & Cohen, 1996; Weil, Fung, Graham, & Fagotto, 2006).”

Firms that generate electricity from fossil fuels, especially coal, are exposed to a higher level of pressure and scrutiny due to their emissions than t”
Eco-Premium or Eco-Penalty? Eco-Labels and Quality in the Organic Wine Market (2012, unknown): “Jin and Leslie (2003) found that mandatory hygiene cards positively affected restaurant quality and health outcomes, while Delmas et al. (2010) found that mandatory disclosure over utility electricity generation mixes resulted in an increase in cleaner fuels.”
Information Strategies and Energy Conservation Behavior: A Meta-Analysis of Experimental Studies from 1975 to 2012 (2013, unknown): “These include ecolabels (Crespi and Marette, 2005; Leire and Thidell, 2005), and mandatory and voluntary corporate disclosure (Khanna, 2001; Delmas et al., 2010).”
