Analysis of Pro-environmental Behavior Pathways of Sea-related Enterprises under TOE Framework
Data from 36 listed marine-related enterprises in China was collected and the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis method were applied to investigate the influencing factors and conditional histories of pro-environmental behavior of marine-related enterprises from three levels of"technology-organization-environment".The results show that there are six paths leading to pro-environmental behavior,which can be classified into four types:relationship-driven,technology-driven,institutional-driven,and scale-driven.The environmental protection system imposes requirements on enterprises to protect the environment in a mandatory manner;inter-enterprise cooperative relationships and external relationships of enterprises can create invisible external pressure on enterprises,which can strengthen pro-environmental behavior.Based on the above conclusions three suggestions are put forward.Environmental protection laws and environmental protection inspection system should be improved,the development of industry associations and inter-enterprise communication platform should be supported,and enterprises should be called on to establish environmental awareness and take the initiative to assume social responsibility.
