In addition, the factors that affect the environmental awareness were also determined. Face to face interviews were done with 975 individuals 25 cities were chosen throughout Turkey, which means at least 2 cities from each region. The models were estimated by the ordered logistic regression. Environmental awareness were evaluated from the standpoints of water, air and soil. Among the pollution categories, people were mostly aware of the pollution in air. In policies related to converting sensitivity to environment to action the Turkish government and institutions should take into account gender, education, income, age, industrial city and number of information source. 000006807 546__ $$aEnglish 000006807 650__ $$aEnvironmental Economics and Policy 000006807 700__ $$aCankurt, Murat 000006807 700__ $$aMiran, Bulent 000006807 700__ $$aGunden, Cihat 000006807 700__ $$aSahin, Ahmet 000006807 8564_ $$9fb33a388-7bc4-4e9a-8d3c-4804c1318736$$s285076$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/6807/files/sp08ca01.pdf 000006807 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/6807 000006807 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:6807$$pGLOBAL_SET 000006807 912__ $$nSubmitted by Martha Ruddy (ruddy005@gmail.com) on 2008-04-20T18:47:18Z No. of bitstreams: 1 sp08ca01.pdf: 285076 bytes, checksum: 12538e9676aeffce56bf1c538d7ca504 (MD5) 000006807 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2008-04-20T18:47:18Z (GMT).
