Abstract

The whole world is facing environmental crisis and this crisis can lead to extreme hardships or perhaps extinction of humanity on this planet. Development of Environmental Consciousness among ourselves is the only way through which we can reduce the problem of environmental crisis. The present study will highlight the environmental consciousness in higher educational institutions. The study attempts to measure the environmental consciousness of students of higher educational institutions with respect to various academic and demographic variables. The present research employs a descriptive survey research design. For the present study the sample consisted of 136 students of higher educational institutions. The data was collected using random sampling technique. The data was collected using self-constructed Likert scale on environmental consciousness. The results were analysed using t test. The study found that females are more environmentally conscious than those of males. However no significant difference in the environmental consciousness was found with respect to locale, stream and educational qualification and students have a moderate level of environmental consciousness. To foster better environmental knowledge, understanding, and skills, to raise environmental consciousness of students in specific and public in general, the importance of environmental education should be emphasised.
