Abstract

It is vital to remember that public acceptance of pro-environmental behavior, as evidenced by the adoption of a sustainable lifestyle, is a critical issue in the fight to protect the environment. The purpose of this paper is to assess the young consumers knowledge and perception on green brand; examine their environmental attitudes and evaluate how these factors can affect their green product purchase intention. The result revealed that consumer knowledge and attitudes towards environment influenced their views on green products. It also demonstrated a strong link between green product perception and purchasing behaviour.
