摘要
This study examines consumer resistance to the reuse value of the UK second-hand school uniform market,drawing on eco-philosophy and circular economy frameworks.Specifically,it examines how environmental knowledge,the 3R principle(reuse,reduce,recycle),cost saving,and perceived social norms shape attitudes toward reusage.A Google survey of parents,students,and community members provided quantitative data,which were used to connect three eco-philosophy frameworks and address gaps in the current understanding.This article examines the issue through three eco-philosophy frameworks,highlighting the need for stronger policies that promote the adoption of second-hand school uniforms.Further findings from case studies highlight that decision-making motivation,social norms,and incentives are central to participation.Overall,the study confirms that ecological ethics,school culture,and behavioral change collectively inform policies and environmental benefits of lowcarbon lifestyles,enhancing sustainable uniform reuse in the UK.
