Our model served as a framework for understanding the development of environmental awareness and the change of habits in favor of sustainability. The main variables included in the model were values, beliefs, norms, perceived environmental control, demographic variables, knowledge, intention, and behaviour. The results based on the example of Ljubljana indicate that environmental motives and knowledge are the factors predominantly influencing actual environmentally friendly habits. It is concluded that a bottom-up approach with selected social influence methods is the most appropriate.}, type={Text}, title={From words to action: Improving drinking water behaviour in the urban environment}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/63178/PDF/WA51_82924_r2017-t90-no3_G-Polonica-Polajnar.pdf}, keywords={environmental awareness, behavioural geography, behavioural factors, drinking water, sustainable development, Ljubljana}, }
