In this context, however, there is little evidence to what extend these behavioral differences between women and men have been translated into consumption actions more environmental friendly. Within this approach, this paper evaluates different environmental footprints of consumption patterns of women and men. As a case study, we examine Spain during the period 2008-2013. Using data from Spanish input-output tables, environmental air accounts, and household expenditure surveys for the same period, the study give evidence that gender differences take a relevant and significant position according to Weighted Least Square regression.48 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd, (c) Guillén, Montserrat et al., 2019http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Avaluació d'impacte ambientalEstudis de gènereConsum (Economia)Environmental impact analysisGender studiesConsumption (Economics)info:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
