    The Common Good Approach in Entrepreneurial Practice (2019)
    In:  Zeitschrift für Wirtschafts- und Unternehmensethik: zfwu
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: Die soziale Bewegung der Gemeinwohl-Ökonomie (GWÖ) fordert, dass jegliches Wirtschaften dem Gemeinwohl dienen soll. Mit Blick auf einen Mangel an Forschung zur Praxis gemeinwohlorientierten Wirtschaftens haben wir Interviews mit GWÖ-Unternehmen durchgeführt. Wir beleuchten die Eigenschaften und Praktiken gemeinwohlorientierter Unternehmen und diskutieren, warum die GWÖ ein attraktives CSR-Instrument für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen ist.
    Description: The Economy for the Common Good (ECG) is a social movement that claims that all economic activity should serve the common good. Addressing the lack of research on the common good approach in entrepreneurial practice, we conducted interviews with companies that have joined the ECG. We illuminate common good-oriented companies’ characteristics and practices and discuss why the ECG is an attractive CSR tool for small and medium-sized companies.

    Strategies to Reduce Food Packaging. Reducing waste from single-use plastic packaging through unpackaged concepts, reusable packaging, and regional supply systems (2022)
    Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS)
    In:  IASS Policy Brief
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: The high volume of plastic packaging currently consumed in Germany poses a complex socio-ecological risk. As part of the BMBF-funded ENSURE research consortium, environmental psychologists at the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) in Potsdam have studied various policy options to promote a reduction in individual consumption of plastic food packaging. A representative nationwide survey of 1,200 persons conducted by the researchers shows that 92 per cent of the interviewed consumers consider plastic waste in the environment a threat to the preservation of our natural resources and the foundations of life. Despite this widespread awareness, the consumption of plastic packaging continues to grow: In 2018, Germany generated over three million tonnes of plastic packaging waste; more than double the amount produced in 1997. The findings of the ENSURE project indicate that consumers are willing and indeed wish to reduce their consumption of plastic packaging; however, they are hindered by personal and structural barriers. Political action is needed to break down these barriers to change and support consumers in their efforts. This IASS Policy Brief presents three strategic policy recommendations that could help reduce the consumption of packaging in daily life. Following an outline of the broader context and key issues, these three recommendations are explained in detail. In conclusion, we highlight the need for a systemic approach to the reduction of plastic packaging.

    Strategien zur Reduktion von Lebensmittelverpackungen. Unverpackt-Konzepte, Mehrweg-Systeme und regionale Versorgungsstrukturen als Ansätze zur reduzierten Nutzung von Einweg-Plastikverpackungen (2021)
    Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS)
    In:  IASS Policy Brief
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: Der derzeit hohe Verbrauch an Plastikverpackungen stellt ein komplexes sozial-ökologisches Risiko dar. Am Institut für transformative Nachhaltigkeitsforschung (IASS) haben Umweltpsychologinnen und -psychologen im Rahmen des vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung geförderten Verbundprojektes ENSURE erforscht, wie eine Reduktion des individuellen Verbrauchs von Plastikverpackungen für Lebensmittel gefördert werden kann. Laut einer im ENSURE-Projekt durchgeführten repräsentativen deutschlandweiten Online-Befragung mit 1200 Teilnehmenden erleben 92 Prozent der Befragten Plastikmüll in der Umwelt als bedrohlich im Hinblick auf den Erhalt unserer natürlichen Lebensgrundlagen. Trotz des hohen Problembewusstseins nimmt der Verbrauch an Verpackungen im Alltag weiterhin stetig zu: 2018 fielen in Deutschland über drei Millionen Tonnen Kunststoffverpackungsabfälle an, womit sich die Menge seit 1997 mehr als verdoppelt hat. Die Ergebnisse des ENSURE-Projektes zeigen, dass die Bereitschaft der Konsumentinnen und Konsumenten ihren Verbrauch an Plastikverpackungen zu reduzieren zwar gegeben ist, jedoch durch persönliche sowie strukturelle Barrieren behindert wird. Es bedarf politischen Handelns, um diese vielfältigen Barrieren abzubauen und die Konsumentinnen und Konsumenten in ihren Bemühungen zu unterstützen. Der vorliegende Policy Brief schlägt drei Strategien vor, die zur Reduktion des Verbrauchs von Verpackungen im Alltag beitragen. Auf den folgenden Seiten werden nach einer Vorstellung des Kontextes diese drei Empfehlungen ausführlicher erläutert. Im Fazit heben wir die Notwendigkeit eines systemischen Ansatzes zur Reduktion von Verpackungen hervor.

    Personal and structural factors that influence individual plastic packaging consumption—Results from focus group discussions with German consumers (2021)
    In:  Cleaner and responsible consumption
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-02-22
    Description: Plastic waste is perceived as one of the major environmental problems of our times. Nevertheless, rates of consumption of plastic packaging are constantly increasing. Based on focus group discussions with German consumers this study identified personal and structural barriers that hinder a reduced plastic packaging consumption. Combining our findings with those of previous studies, we conclude that fundamental changes in infrastructures and lifestyles, as well as cultural and economic transformation processes, are needed to make zero-waste shopping the norm and unpackaged goods the most affordable and convenient option. The questions ‘Who is shopping?’, ‘What are we shopping?’, ‘Where do we go shopping?’, and ‘When/how often do we go shopping?’ help in identifying the levers for a dissemination of the unpacked concept and also reveal factors that have so far only been marginally discussed in the discourse on the plastic problem and have not yet been systematically linked to it.
