Abstract

Climate change is supposed to adversely impact freshwater resources, and in many settings these impacts are already evident globally. In this paper, we examine the knowledge and attitudes of college students of Kashmir valley about the causes, effects, and priority given to climate change. The study compromised of 400 students selected at random from different Colleges of Kashmir valley using a well designed questionnaire based on the literature available on the topic and validated by experts. The data collected was analysed using standard statistical tools. The results obtained from our study reveals that the students under study have low climate change awareness and attitude. Further, it was observed that statistically there is no significant difference between the male and female students mean score on climate change awareness and attitude. Finally, recommendations of the study were discussed and suggestions for further studies were made. The results obtained in our study are in agreement with the previous study (Bilal et al. 2017).
