Abstract:
Considering the vulnerable climatic conditions in most parts of the planet, a successful transition toward a carbon-free future is a critical challenge worldwide. In this respect, around 35% of the world\'s total greenhouse gas emission (GHG) is associated with the power sector (especially electrical energy). To this end, a vast of electrical energy has been used by the people in buildings. Specifically, a significant amount of energy in buildings is used for heating, cooling, and ventilation. While the available literature highlights the importance of neat, clean, and green electrical energy for the decarbonization of society, a critical gap exists in such literature. That is, most of the literature under this stream deals with the supply side (production) of electrical energy, while the demand side (consumption at an individual level) was neglected. To bridge this critical knowledge gap, this study investigates how the CSR engagement of a hotel organization can promote the energy-related pro-environmental behavior (ERPEB) among the employees with the intervening effect of employees\' environmental commitment (EMEC) and Green intrinsic motivation (GRIM). Further, the conditional indirect role of altruistic values was also tested in this study. The data were collected from different hotel employees in Pakistan with the help of a self-administered questionnaire. We tested the hypothesized relationship through structural equation modeling (SEM). The results confirmed that CSR can be a potential motivator to impact the ERPEB of employees, while EMEC and GRIM mediated this relationship significantly. The findings of this study also confirmed the conditional indirect role of altruistic values. These findings offer various theoretical and practical contributions which are conversed in detail.
摘要:
考虑到地球大部分地区脆弱的气候条件,向无碳未来的成功过渡是全球面临的关键挑战。在这方面,全球约35%的温室气体排放总量(GHG)与电力部门(尤其是电能)有关。为此,人们在建筑物中使用了大量的电能。具体来说,建筑物中大量的能源用于供暖,冷却,和通风。虽然现有文献强调了整洁的重要性,干净,以及社会脱碳的绿色电能,在这样的文献中存在一个关键的差距。也就是说,这一领域的大多数文献都涉及电能的供应侧(生产),而需求方面(个人层面的消费)却被忽视了。为了弥合这个关键的知识差距,这项研究调查了酒店组织的CSR参与如何在员工的环境承诺(EMEC)和绿色内在动机(GRIM)的干预作用下促进员工中与能源相关的环保行为(ERPEB)。Further,在这项研究中也检验了利他主义价值的条件间接作用。这些数据是在自制问卷的帮助下从巴基斯坦不同的酒店员工那里收集的。我们通过结构方程模型(SEM)检验了假设关系。结果证实,企业社会责任可能是影响员工ERPEB的潜在动机,而EMEC和GRIM显著介导了这种关系。这项研究的发现也证实了利他价值观的条件间接作用。这些发现提供了各种理论和实践贡献,并进行了详细的阐述。
