This document summarizes research on intergenerational environmental relations, specifically how elders socialized in cultures of scarcity influence their grandchildren's adoption of sustainable habits. The study uses surveys and interviews across multiple countries to test hypotheses about how scarcity-era socialization affects environmental values over generations. Preliminary findings suggest savings habits are indirectly passed down, and stem more from material needs than environmental awareness, though some post-materialist values appear in higher-income families. Overall pro-environmental attitudes do not differ greatly across countries studied.
