Notes:
Online from AgWeb.com via AgriMarketing Weekly. 2 pages., Discontinued advertising campaign based on inaccurate information about using lemongrass in cows' diets to reduce methane emissions by "up to 33%."
24 pages., Online via UI e-subscription, Three experiments examined how available resources and the resource burden of responding to an environmental peril affect the perceived burden of taking action, and how perceiving burden, in turn, affects avoidance of information about the threat. Findings demonstrated that facing a high mitigation burden (e.g., costs of hurricane damage recovery and home air quality systems) and lack of resources can lead to remaining uninformed. Findings also identified a potential pathway for intervention.
