Abstract

The human environmental behaviour change is a difficult and long term aim, with no guarantee of the final efficiency. A national project that proposes the elaboration and implementation of an encouraging environmental responsible behavior program amongst children was made. A cross-sectional study was conducted among students aged 7-8 years old from three schools by using anonymous questionnaires, which assessed their environment related knowledge, attitudes and behaviours. The results indicate that even though children have satisfactory knowledge, they do not act consequently, so pro-environmental education is still necessary, and the positive reinforcement is recommended.
