“…(3) Environmental Protection Behavior. Public environmental protection behavior is considered as the public's selfprotection based on long-term consideration [30]. erefore, the level of public perception of air pollution also affects the public's environmental protection behavior.…”

“…Instead, this acceptance-relevant aspect was retrieved from the results of the preliminary interview study in which several participants questioned the lower sustainability of CCU insulation boards because of the use of plastic in the product. In recent years, an increasingly critical attitude towards plastic (Filho et al, 2021), especially towards plastic pollution (Soares et al, 2021), as well as a turn towards more natural (building) materials (e.g., Takano et al, 2014) can be observed. In fact, public rejection of plastic products may act as a serious barrier to the market success of CCU-based plastic production in the future.…”

“…Instead, multifaceted approaches, including reductions to plastic production, improved waste management, a transition to a more circular economy, and an increase in the scale of environmental recovery, are all needed (Borrelle et al, 2020;Lau et al, 2020;Veiga et al, 2016). While regulatory actions, infrastructure improvements and interventions such as capture devices and cleanups are critical tools with substantial potential to help tackle this global issue (e.g., Hohn et al, 2020;Lau et al, 2020), better managing the consumption and disposal of plastics used in daily life can help mitigate the issue (Soares et al, 2021). Reducing individual-level consumption of problematic or unnecessary singleuse plastic items is another essential component of the solution, as individual actions influence the global waste stream.…”

“…Specifically related to the plastic pollution problem, understanding aquarium visitor behaviors and perceptions related to single-use plastics, which ultimately may wind up in the environment, can provide valuable insights to better engage visitors with solutions (Soares et al, 2021). Aquarium exhibits are often designed to include calls-to-action that visitors can adopt (e.g., Ballantyne et al, 2011;Clayton et al, 2009).…”
