Abstract

Environmental issue has attracted attentions as one of the most important issues of the last century. This problem is a phenomena that threats to sustainable life. Effective solution of this issue depends on conscious and awareness of people about environmental matters. The main purpose of this study is to determine the level of awareness and attitudes to environmental issues in Turkey. The analysis was made to see the effects of age, gender, education and revenue on the awareness and attitudes to environmental pollution. Data were collected from 7 regions and 25 cities via personal interview (2138). Water, air, soil, visual and general pollutions are the criteria on which awareness and attitudes were evaluated in the study. Air and water pollutions appear more significant than the others. It is determined that the media is the best way of disseminating the information regarding environmental education more efficiently. According to the LogitRegressions model, education and income were effective individual factors on awareness of environmental pollution. The most influential factor on environmental awareness is to take environmental education from school.

空气、水、土壤、视觉和一般污染感知的探索性研究

环境问题作为上个世纪最重要的问题之一引起了人们的关注。这个问题是一个威胁到可持续生命的现象。这个问题的有效解决取决于人们对环境问题的意识和意识。本研究的主要目的是确定土耳其对环境问题的认识和态度水平。分析了年龄、性别、教育程度和收入对环境污染意识和态度的影响。数据通过个人访谈(2138人)从7个地区和25个城市收集。水、空气、土壤、视觉和一般污染是研究中评估意识和态度的标准。空气和水污染似乎比其他污染更为严重。人们确定，传播媒介是更有效地传播有关环境教育信息的最佳途径。根据LogitRegressions模型，教育程度和收入是影响环境污染意识的有效个体因素。对环境意识影响最大的因素是学校的环境教育。

期刊介绍： Cessation. Ekoloji is an international journal that focuses on papers that report results from original research on all disciplines engaged in the field of environmental research. We welcome articles that cover the entire spectrum of environmental problems and environmental pollutants, whether chemical, biological or physical. Its coverage extends to all environmentally related issues: air and water pollution, solid waste, noise, recycling, natural resources, ecology and environmental protection. It includes articles on basic and applied environmental pollution research, including environmental engineering and environmental health. All types of pollution are covered, including atmospheric pollutants, detergents, fertilizers, industrial effluents, metals, mining wastes, oil, pesticides, plastics, radioactive materials and sewage. It also includes research papers on ecological and environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity. The primary criteria for publication are scientific quality and ecological/environmental significance. The journal will be read and contributed to by biologists, applied ecologists, environmental scientists, natural resource specialists, environmental engineers, environmental health specialists, agro-ecologists, veterinaries, agricultural engineers, landscape planners and designers. The journal welcomes full "research papers" and short "research notes", only in the English language.
