| Abstract: | Overconsumption of natural resources is frequently portrayed as a significant environmental threat. This paper addresses overconsumption from the individual level, discussing the problems associated with identifying overconsumption and identifying general approaches that can be used to reduce consumption. A behavioral approach to understanding resource consumption is presented, with the existing literature reviewed as it applies to this approach. |
