N2 - It is generally accepted that consumerist lifestyles is one of the major contributor to the energy crisis and the climate change. Therefore, any transition to a sustainable society will require people to move to energetically and materially simpler lifestyles. While in recent decades sociological studies have explored pro-environmental practices and more sustainable lifestyles, the resilience of such lifestyles and their reproduction has been under-researched. The present study fills a gap researching reproduction of environmentally friendly lifestyle. The paper is based on data from the third wave of the unique longitudinal qualitative research (1992, 2002, 2015) on households and individuals living in voluntary modesty (Librová 1999; 2008) and on data from research of their contemporary counterparts. Adopting the technique of in-depth interviews and observation in households, we focus specifically on aspects of everyday consumption practices (incl. energy consumption). Questions have been raised about the sources of their inspiration and about transmission of pro-environmental values. Preliminary results support the assumption that voluntary simplifiers could represent new pathway for a desirable sustainable future.
