Abstract

Green Consumerism or the use of environmentally friendly products is important in the life of this modern era. Green consumerism contributes to the preservation of the environment for life in the future. The use of green products is part of the pro-environmental behavior that plays an important role in reducing the amount of waste, sustainable development, and saving resources. This is the underlying need to do this research. The purpose of this study is to describe students' pro-environmental behavior, in terms of groups of MIPA and non-MIPA students. Differences in perceived scientific background can be a distinguishing factor. The method used is descriptive method. Pro-environmental behavior data was taken from 130 students of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MIPA) Program and 130 Non-Mathematics and Natural Sciences (non-MIPA) students in Universitas Negeri Jakarta, in June 2018. The results of t-test showed no significant difference in pro-environmental behavior between MIPA and NON MIPA students. The students' proenvironment behavior score in both groups has averages that do not very much, with an average score above 60. This indicates that in essence MIPA and non-MIPA students have pro-environment behavior that is still relatively good. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
