Conditions
Brief summary
The research will be conducted to determine the effect of I Recycle, I Protect the Environment, I Leave a Livable World as a Legacy program on secondary school students' recycling behaviour.
Detailed description
Recycling is crucial for environmental health as it plays a significant role in the protection of the environment, the conservation of natural resources, and the reduction of energy consumption. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are fundamentally centered around the themes of water management, energy sustainability, and responsible consumption and production practices. Without proactive measures to safeguard environmental health, the world is likely to encounter significant challenges related to water security, food supply, and the sustainability of natural resources in the future. The study intervention was meticulously formulated on the basis of the Planned Behaviour Theory, encompassing a training programme focused on secondery school students' recycle behaviour. The training program includes topics such as environmental pollution, recycling behaviors, and the protection of natural resources and ecosystems. In addition, the program incorporates activities such as games, puzzle, brainstorming sessions, and the creation of painted cloth bags.
