Abstract
This paper sheds new lights on the green consumption phenomenon, and more generally on the determinants of the dynamic of green markets. We argue that some green goods such as carbon labeling products are indeterminate goods (Lupton, 2005).

Our innovative framework, which is based on the impact of socially constructed information and that of social sanctions, gives challenging insights to study green consumerism.- Full Text:
