Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices toward Plastic Pollution among Malaysians: Implications for Minimizing Plastic Use and Pollution
Researchers surveyed Malaysians about their knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding plastic pollution. The study found that while most people were aware of plastic pollution problems, there was a significant gap between awareness and actual behavior change. The findings suggest that education campaigns alone are insufficient and need to be paired with practical infrastructure and policy changes to reduce plastic use.
Improving residential plastic waste management strategies for increasing value added to environmental sustainability
Researchers surveyed community awareness and behavior regarding plastic waste management in an Indonesian village, identifying gaps between knowledge and practice. Improving community engagement with proper plastic waste disposal is essential for reducing the plastic entering waterways and eventually becoming microplastics.

The Effects of Community Characteristics on Solid-Waste Generation and Management in the Village (A Case Study: Kurandak, North Sumatra)
A study in a North Sumatra village used questionnaires and interviews to assess how demographic and socioeconomic factors influence both household waste generation and participation in waste management. Education, income, and knowledge about waste management were significant predictors of both waste volume and responsible disposal behavior. Community-level programs that address these factors could improve plastic waste management in rural settings.
The Effect of Environmental Education, Consumer Awareness, and Environmentally Friendly Practices on Plastic Waste Reduction in Indonesia
Researchers measured the effects of environmental education, consumer awareness, and environmentally friendly purchasing intentions on pro-environmental behavior, using structural equation modeling on survey data. Environmental education indirectly improved behavior through increasing awareness and purchase intention, suggesting that educational interventions are most effective when paired with behavioral prompts.
Analyzing Urban Communities Level of Environmental Awareness for a Future Sustainable Use of Plastic Packaging
This study surveyed urban community members in Indonesia about environmental awareness related to plastic packaging use, finding moderate awareness levels and identifying education and media exposure as key factors influencing knowledge and willingness to adopt more sustainable packaging consumption behaviors.
