How can knowledge of the field of environmental psychology be used to promote
environment-friendly behaviour?
The knowledge of environmental psychology is helpful to promote environment friendly behaviour because:
It studies the interaction of physical factors such as temperature, humidity, pollution and natural disaster on human behaviour.
It analyses the influence of physical arrangements at work place on the health, emotional state and interpersonal relations of the individual.
Issues like disposal of waste, population explosion, conservation of energy etc. are related with behaviour of human beings as well as its consequence.
Thus, an understanding of human behaviour in relation to environment generates awareness and inculcates safe environmental practices.
