In order to investigate the relationship between negative anthropomorphic image and green consumption intention, constructs a theoretical model between negative anthropomorphic images, perceived threat and green consumption intention, uses a questionnaire research method, and analyzes the results using structural equation modeling. The results show that negative anthropomorphic images negatively affect consumers' green consumption intention; negative anthropomorphic images positively affect perceived threat, perceived threat positively affects consumers' consumption intention, and perceived threat plays a mediating role in the influence of negative anthropomorphic images on green consumption intention.
