We introduce illustration identifying environmental degradation or improvement into a 2x2 coordination game with two pareto-ranked equilibria. Our contribution focuses on the environmental character of the information provided through the illustrations, and its effects towards possible pro-environmental behaviour. Our findings have important consequences in terms of public policies. Incentives based on sensitization campaigns for environmental issues can be an alternative to economic instruments when implementing environmental management.
