Studying the use and consumption of energy is a crucial issue for psychological research, because they contribute significantly to global climate change. However, the underlying motives for behavioral change and engagements are only poorly understood. We argue that cognitive and affective appraisals of justice and a dispositional belief in an ecologically just world (BEJW) play an important role in predicting why people engage in energy saving behaviors to protect the global climate or in behaviors that have negative impacts on the climate. Therefore, a questionnaire study (N = 312) examined the influence of distributive justice judgements concerning the distributions of harms and profits from climate change, appraisals of responsibility, e...
