| Tiivistelmä: | This paper argues that eco-labelling could, in certain cases, lead to an adverse effect on the environment. In every society there are some consumers who are concerned about environmental problems and others who are not. Even though labelling does not remedy the negative externality imposed by unconcerned consumers on those who are concerned, it may stimulate concern for the environment and increase the demand for environment-friendly products. However, it is precisely this consequence of labelling which can lead to perverse results. |
