“…In addition, the richness of plants and increasing vegetative cover to improve structural diversity help to improve the biodiversity of residential communities [50]. Residents were willing to pay for plants in their residential communities [32].…”

“…A study regarding the cultural ecosystem services of residential green spaces showed that residential green spaces can effectively compensate for the lack of nearby parks in residential areas [31]. To study public understanding of and demand for the health benefits of residential open space, a contingent valuation of 1348 respondents in China was conducted to evaluate the perceived monetary value of different residential landscape elements, such as plants and activity areas [32]. However, resident attitudes, perceptions, and satisfaction towards the residential communities' landscape environment in terms of functions, aesthetics, and ecology have not been widely explored, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic.…”

Due to continuous urbanization and an increasing need to improve living quality, citizens’ pursuit of landscape quality in residential communities is constantly improving in developing countries, e.g., China. This is especially true in the period when citizens were locked down in their home cities or communities in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Studying whether the current landscape in residential communities still meets citizens’ needs is of significance as it is crucial for city planners, landscape architects, and city managers. In this study, we used the analytic hierarchy process method to evaluate the landscape quality of five residential communities, using the case city of Yangling, China. In total, 516 valid questionnaires were collected in May 2022. The results showed that good organization of residential roads and pedestrian systems, the rationality of rest facilities, and the hierarchical richness of plants were the most important aspects for residents. Based on these, optimization design strategies were summarized. We hope to provide a reference for future landscape optimization of existing residential communities, especially in developing countries.

“…One possible route to address such substantial cost is sharing the cost with the public (Ananno et al, 2021), for example, via green taxes, which are considered effective and efficient in covering the expenditure of public environmental management (Nguyen et al, 2016). Public intention to bear such cost is dependent on proenvironmental willingness to pay (WTP) (Herbes et al, 2015), which reflects the perceived monetary value (or anticipated benefits) of environmental management (Luo et al, 2022). Potentially, this type of WTP could be affected by green advertising, because such advertisements can effectively boost environmental awareness (Kao and Du, 2020), which has been found to have a positive relation with pro-environmental WTP (Xu et al, 2020).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the influences of positive-framed and negative-framed green advertising on pro-environmental WTP. This study also explores the impacts of regulatory focus, environmental concern and pleasant level on green advertising effectiveness.Design/methodology/approachData are collected from a within-participant between-group online experiment in China. The generalized estimating equation (GEE) is employed to investigate the impact of green advertising on WTP. Grouped regression and mediation analyses are conducted to explore the influences of regulatory focus, environmental concern and pleasure on advertising efficacy.FindingsThe experimental outcomes indicate that green advertising significantly increases participants’ pro-environmental WTP, and negative-framed advertising is more effective than its positive-framed counterpart. Prevention focus heightens receptivity to green advertising, and the relation of environmental concern to advertising effectiveness is inverted U-shaped. Pleasure mediates the effect of green advertising on the WTP, and this mediating role is influenced by emotional intensity when advertising is negatively framed.Originality/valueEvidence suggests that green advertising may propel pro-environmental WTP by raising environmental awareness, but such a relationship remains severely understudied. As such, this study pioneers in exploring the impact of different-framed green advertising on pro-environmental WTP, extending the concept of green advertising to environmental management. By considering the influences of regulatory focus, environmental concern and pleasure, this study raises practical implications for designing green advertisements, such as increasing the usage of visual elements.
