Abstract

This research investigated social and personal factors that promote sustainable eating behavior. An online food journal was created to measure sustainable food consumption over three days. As hypothesized, results reveal that social norms predict sustainable eating intentions. Additionally, both moral attitudes and intentions predict sustainable eating behavior.
