Correlates and Dimensions of Environmental Quality Concern among Residents of an African Subtropical City: Gaborone, Botswana.
Chanda, Raban
Journal of Environmental Education, v30 n2 p31-39 Win 1999
Examines the dimensions of environmental quality and socioeconomic concern among residents of a small but spatially and demographically dynamic city in southern Africa. Environmental quality issues compete with socioeconomic concerns for people's attention, and the issues are more recognized by better-educated and well-off residents. Concludes that gender and age were poor predictors of environmental concern. Contains 30 references. (Author/PVD)
