Effects of TikTok on Gen Z Sustainability

This study aims to explore Gen Z consumers' purchase behavior on TikTok with a concentration on their care for the environment. The belief that Gen Z is the most important audience to TikTok as it continues to evolve into an E-Commerce app grounds this research, which will seek to answer the following two main questions: Are Generation Z consumers experiencing cognitive dissonance due to fashion purchases made on TikTok? More holistically, how is TikTok affecting how Gen Z consumers feel about environmental sustainability?
