Future research should delve deeper into the relationship between sustainable consumption and energy poverty. Although this study explored generational attitudes toward climate action, it is crucial to consider how economic vulnerability limits the capacity of individuals to adopt sustainable practices. Understanding how to bridge this gap between sustainability and affordability is essential for ensuring that climate action is inclusive and equitable. This includes addressing issues such as energy poverty, where individuals are unable to make choices about their energy consumption due to financial constraints.
