Consuming Green, Living Green? Boundary Conditions of the Licensing Effect.

Sustainable consumption at t=0 may license people to behave unsustainably at t=1. We show that this effect is mitigated by one’s sustainable self-view. We also find that self-licenses can be traded in only once and do not persist in subsequent situations (t=2).
