Even though, technology oriented goods offe r a variety of benefits to consumers, they also create pollution to the environment. Thus, there is a growing number of consumers that seek environment - friendly goods and services. In this globe, the major goal of this study is to understand consumers kno wledge and perception regarding the consumption of environmental goods. Furthermore, the study also aims to constitute green buying habits, overall attitudes towards environmentalism, and factors that affect the environmental conscious purchases. With the aid of randomly selected respondents, a written survey will be analyzed by multiple regression as a specific goal to measure consumer perception and green buying behavior variables along with demographical factors.
