| dc.description.abstract | The present research deals with the impact of environmental certification in hospitality and tourism, considering the consumer behavior of Generation Z. Grounded on a sample of 301 respondents in Portugal, this paper evaluates the interplay of general prosocial attitudes and green consumption values on receptivity towards green certificates and awards, as well as their communication. Using structural equation modeling, this paper estimates these linkages and finds that Green Prosocial Attitudes significantly enhance Green Consumption Values, positively affecting Green Certificates & Awards and Receptivity to Green Communication. These factors enhance Willingness to pay more for Green Hotels. It has been shown that consumers are more willing to pay premium prices for green hotels as long as the green marketing strategies of the hotels are transparent and credible enough to reduce skepticism about greenwashing. Practical implications are that hospitality businesses must invest in getting and promoting green certification and awards to appeal to environmentally conscious Generation Z consumers. In addition, transparency in sustainability practices is a must for generating and keeping trust. Future studies should have a larger size and composition, with an integration of data concerning behavior. | pt_PT |
