Major Indian cities have a lower public open space (POS)-capita ratio and do not meet national and international standards. Moreover, factors such as lack of design guidelines for POSs, limited funding, and lack of public participation have affected these limitedly available POSs and made them ineffective and incapable of meeting the contemporary needs of a diverse range of users. Therefore, it is essential to make them not only inclusive, user-friendly, attractive, and efficient, but also socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable in order to serve the various facilities and services at their optimum level. This study includes the assessment of two POSs to identify strengths and deficiencies that affect their character and use. These POSs are public parks, provide free access to users and are located in the city of Nagpur. For assessment, the study proposed the Public Open Space Index (POSI) that combines five aspects: Individual well-being, Inclusiveness, Engagement, Sustainable spaces, and Management.A mixed methods approach was considered for data collection, including a self-administered questionnaire survey and observations.According to the results, POSs have strengths in that they facilitate social cohesion, engagement, and basic facilities. POSs do not encourage equitable access and sustainable practices, which are considered deficiencies.The study helps planners, designers, and parenting authority to develop initiatives to make these limited POSs inclusive, functional, and sustainable.

The Gosling et al (2003) Big 5 Personality traits measures uses two items-one positively worded and the other negatively worded and has been utilized frequently in the green literature (Bettin & Wollni, 2019;Ramírez-Correa et al, 2019;Weijs-Perrée et al, 2020), suggesting the acceptability of the scale. Given the number of constructs measured in the study, the Gosling et al (2003) scale was utilized due to its' brevity.…”

This research examines packaging-free shopping, which contributes to reducing the negative impact of plastic packaging on the environment, and its' relationship with green consumption values, value consciousness, and psychological traits. A mixedmethods approach is adopted with quantitative followed by qualitative research. Study 1 recruits 240 respondents from social media and the lead author's university website to examine different factors that increase consumers' likelihood of packaging-free shopping. Study 2 recruits packaging-free shoppers from Facebook Pages, explores these findings and provides further insights. Study 1 finds that consumers are driven more by green consumer values than by value consciousness, and consumers who are more conscientious are more likely to do packaging-free shopping. Study 2 supports this by finding that green consumer values drive packaging-free shopping, but this in only one part of their green efforts. The research contributes by illustrating the importance of conscientiousness specifically in the domain of packaging-free shopping and that these packaging-free shoppers are not driven in terms of value for money but by addressing their green consumer values. We recommend that packaging-free retailers and policy makers utilize promotional efforts to communicate how packagingfree shopping provides a balance with consumers' green values for these shoppers, how it fits in with their other green efforts, and how these shopping efforts are making a difference in helping the environment.

As it is recognized that urbanization is threatening urban greenspace, many researchers stress its importance for people’s well-being [ 10 ] and for reducing air pollution and mitigating climate change [ 11 ].…”
