        abstract = {We are all quite concerned about the state of the environment these days. People need to be made more conscious of the environment and its issues. Being conscious of the environment and making decisions that help the planet rather than harm it is known as environmental awareness. Human society will be better equipped to preserve the ecological balance through environmental education that raises awareness of environmental issues. The goal of environmental education is to instill in students the knowledge, mindset, abilities and communication necessary to preserve the environment. The sole purpose of environmental education is to teach human society to view the environment holistically. Degradation of the environmental procurement at the most fundamental level is caused by a lack of environmental consciousness regarding the conservation of forests and the preservation of species and culture, among other things. If it continues, human society will face an enormous problem. The purpose of the current questionnaire is to investigate pupils' awareness of the environment. It is the responsibility of every individual to take care of nature and to protect nature awareness about environment should be given. Thus, this questionnaire will be helpful for creating awareness among the students. It was determined that there is a significant difference between secondary school students attending government and private schools on all aspects of environmental awareness based on the respondent scores of the two groups on all the items listed in the questionnaire.},
