Chapter synopsis:

This chapter explores generational cohorts’ attitudes towards and purchasing behaviour relating to different dimensions of sustainable food consumption (SFC). It examines differences in attitudes to SFC between generational cohort differences. It then develops a typology characterizing participants based on their attitudes towards SFC, based on generational, demographic, and other socioeconomic characteristics, which can be used to better understand consumption behaviour.
