The environment awareness often forms on the basis of effective recognition of environment scientific knowledge.
Therefore, finding out people’s recognition of environment scientific knowledge is the primary aspect in analyzing
public environment awareness. The investigation on environment knowledge level was carried out through the
examination on seven environment-related terms, and the results were divided into two aspects, the awareness rate and
the accuracy rate (the rate of correctly explaining the meaning of each concept). In “2007 National Public Environment
Awareness Investigation Report”, the average national level is 50.4% for awareness rate and 30.2% for accuracy rate.
