Buyers would make domestic stores and shopping centers greener with solar panels, optimization of cooling and heating systems, and energy-saving lighting.
Those interviewed mostly try to protect the environment with reusable shopping bags. Four out of ten rural and metropolitan respondents (40%) agree that unnecessary or non-recyclable packaging is the most significant environmental waste in stores.
Opinions are also divided as to whether unnecessarily strong cooling and heating (16%), excessive lighting (12%), environmental pollution from transport (12%) or goods procured from unsustainable sources (12%) are the most severe problems.
A third of the respondents (37%) see that the environmental protection attitude of the shop s shows a mixed picture, and only one in 10 (12%) consider their operations sustainable.
