The Impact of Ecological Intelligence and Anxiety on Sustainable Nutrition
Sponsor: Atılım University
Summary
Environmental problems such as climate change, loss of biodiversity and depletion of natural resources threaten sustainable living and human health. In order to cope with these threats, individuals' environmental sensitivity should be increased and sustainable lifestyles should be encouraged. In this context, ecological intelligence refers to the ability of individuals to transform environmental knowledge into sustainable behaviors, while ecological anxiety defines the anxiety against environmental threats and may lead individuals to environmentally friendly consumption behaviors. In particular, organic food consumption is considered as a reflection of both ecological intelligence and ecological anxiety. Individuals who prefer organic products make more conscious choices with the aim of reducing environmental impacts and eating healthy. Accordingly, ecological intelligence and ecological anxiety stand out as important factors affecting individuals' sustainable and healthy eating behaviors. Aim: This study aims to examine the effects of ecological intelligence and ecological concern on sustainable eating behaviors in organic food consumers. Expected Results of the Study: This project aims to examine the effects of ecological intelligence and ecological anxiety levels on the sustainable eating behaviors of organic food consumers. The results may show that increased levels of environmental knowledge and concern may reflect positively on sustainable dietary choices and that these individuals are more conscious in their organic food choices. It may also contribute to the development of strategies to promote ecological awareness and environmentally friendly consumption behaviors.
