Past research suggests that crises presentopportunities for adopting sustainable consumption practices. Alternatively, theytend to Increase frugality, which can marginalize environmental considerations.This study extends research conducted in 2018 that evaluates the environmentalimpacts of consumption patterns among Israel’s different socio-economic deciles.The present research returned to the same respondents during the first lockdownto assess how consumptions patterns among different socio-economic deciles, andsupport for different environmental policy options were influence by the Coronacrisis. The findings show that the poorest deciles increase their environmentallydestructive behavior, while the wealthiest deciles show modest improvements. Alldeciles displayed greater frugality in purchasing. The greatest support for disparatepolicy interventions was for policies presented as environmental. The lowest supportreported was for new taxes on daily consumer products, in all socio-economic levels.
