Under the background of “carbon peak and carbon neutrality,” the developmentof public low-carbon behavior is an important guarantee for environmentalimprovement. The in-depth study of public response mechanism toenvironmental policies could effectively promote the green transformationof public lifestyle. This paper explores public response to heterogeneousenvironmental policies through scenario-based experiments, and uses multipleregression analysis to examine factors and mechanism that influencepublic response. The results show that different policy guidance, interestappeal, implementation cost, and commitment mechanism could affectpublic response to policies, and these effects also differ among individualswith different environmental responsibility, policy awareness, time preference,and peer influence. This study portrays the dynamic change in publicattitudes toward environmental policies from both policy perspective andpublic perspective. It also provides theoretical basis for improving publicmotivation to environmental policies and enhancing the effective interfacebetween environmental policies and green behavior.
