Towards consumption reduction in clothing: An exploration of the motivators,facilitators and impediments to buying less
Electric Vehicles (EVs) are being promoted for their potential for reducing CO2 emissions, local air pollution, and dependence on oil imports. However, their uptake has remained slow despite heavy investment in upstream technologies and production, and a raft of economic incentives to potential consumers.

In doing so, it will enable us to assess how different approaches to consumers can help to develop the EVs market.
