The article mentions the larger carbon footprint of men. It is alos mentioned in the study: > One of the obstacles identified by prior research is that compared to women, men are less likely to be eco-friendly in their attitudes, choices, and behaviors (Davidson and Freudenburg 1996; Lee and Holden 1999). Women display greater concern and willingness to take action to help the environment, and this effect is robust across age groups and countries (Cottrell 2003; Dietz, Kalof, and Stern 2002; Levin 1990; Zelezny, Chua, and Aldrich 2000). In contrast, men litter more (Kallgren, Reno, and Cialdini 2000), recycle less (Zelezny et al. 2000), have a larger overall carbon footprint (Reaty and Carlsson-Kanyama 2010), and feel less guilty about living a nongreen lifestyle (Tiller 2014) That implies that women's consumption is also either less or has a smaller impact
