So post-materialism holds rhetorically, not materially. Growth drives both harm and expressed concern—without preventing damage. Meanwhile, the poor live with the consequences—and consistently call for protection. ⚖️ This is environmental justice.

Our VAR analysis confirms this pattern:.1️⃣ Increases in carbon & material footprints precede GDP growth.2️⃣ GDP growth then precedes greater preference for environmental protection over growth

Our distributed lag regression shows:.📈 People are more likely to prefer environmental protection over growth after increases in GDP and ecological footprints.📉 But this preference weakens in recessions—even as harm slows.🧠 Preferences follow growth, not improvement

But at the macro level, a paradox emerges:.📈 GDP growth increases the share of people who prefer environmental protection.🔥 Yet the same growth also drives carbon and material footprints up. we show how concern and GDP rise together over time 👇

Why are lower-income groups more likely to prefer environmental protection over economic growth?.Because they experience more environmental harm. 🌫️ They report worse conditions.📉 Say things are getting worse.😟 Worry more about decline

Why is this surprising?.Because the “post-materialist thesis” claims environmental concern rises with wealth. But we find the opposite:.The poorest are most committed to protecting the environment—despite contributing the least. 🖼️ Data: @lucas_chancel 👇
