PARAMO, Pablo. Pro-environmental rules: An alternative for reducing the "say-do" gap in environmental education. Suma Psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.24, n.1, pp.42-58. ISSN 0121-4381.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sumpsi.2016.11.001.

The discrepancy between what people say and what people do has been at the centre of debate in the study of pro-environmental behaviour. This article presents a systematic review of the available literature on the study of attitudes to the environment, which shows an inconsistency in the results of this approach to generate lasting changes in people's behaviour. A change is proposed in the orientation of research and environmental educational practice from verbal regulation, in particular the following of pro-environmental rules to reduce the gap between what is said and what is done in order to resolve problems related to the environment. The implications of this proposal on environmental education are analysed, as well as some paths for methodological development of this proposal.
