Abstract

Based on scenario simulation data of consumers willingness to pay （WTP） for low-carbon harvested bamboo （wood） products in four regions including Anji County, Linan City, Hangzhou City and Shanghai City, the research had a statistic description of consumers willingness to pay for low-carbon harvested bamboo （wood） products in terms of consumers different gender, different regions, different ages, different levels of monthly income, different education, different occupations and different awareness of low carbon products, and used Ologit model to conduct an empirical analysis of the determinants of consumers WTP. The results indicated that region, age, monthly income, education and awareness of low carbon products had significant influences on consumers willingness to pay; gender and occupation had no significant influences on WTP. The paper concluded with the suggestions to improve consumers WTP and promote the development of low carbon society. ［Ch, 6 tab, 11 ref.］
