Factors affecting the environmental literacy levels of university students and their relationship with the purchasing of organic products

The aim of the study is to measure the variables on the university's literacy level and determine if there is a correlation between the environmental literacy level and the organic product purchasing items, if any, the level of this scope. The study was carried out with the scope of third-year students working in the education; engineering, science and literature faculties of Mersin university. Participants were simultaneously asked to complete demographic knowledge, adult literacy uses, and organic product purchase questionnaire. Departments that display general departments were evaluated as college entrance scores and score types, general GPA, environment subject or course, literacy across variables such as family income types, and organic product intake. Measurements between environmental literacy measurement scores and organic product purchase measurement scores will be examined. The ANOVA test was conducted to compare the relationship between the scores of what they read from general literacy services and the purchasing of organic products. When the P test is less than 0.05A, there is a significant difference between environmental literacy consumption and organic product purchase costs. As a result, it was observed that the purchase rates of organic products were also seen in which students consumed environmental literacy effects.
