Acknowledgements

I want to thank Shalini Grover for her work on UNED-UK’s report on ‘Gender & Sustainable Consumption’ (Grover et al 1999). Writing the present paper, I have drawn on her research and the discussions we had in the project team with Shalini and Clare Flenley, UNED Forum. I also want to thank Markus Paul, University of the Saarland, Saarbruecken, Germany, for searching the PsycLit and Psyndex databases for relevant psychological research, and Jasmin Enayati, UNED Forum, for helping to analyse the results of the search efforts. Wendy Anneke and Raban Chanda, who have reviewed the paper, offered many useful insights and challenging questions, which I am sure I have not been able to address sufficiently.
