Environmental awareness is a critical component of environmental protection. The purpose of this study is to assess students’ knowledge of the environment and its influence on pro-environmental behaviour. A survey research design was employed in this study. The survey was carried out by delivering questionnaires to UMRAH students. A linear regression analysis was performed to assess the association between environmental awareness and the ability to maintain nature and the earth. According to the data collected, 67% of respondents strongly agreed and 30% agreed in the first aspect. Furthermore, 68% of respondents strongly agreed, whereas 32% agreed in the second aspect. The third aspect received 66.6% of respondents who replied highly agree and 32.2% who answered agreed, while the fourth aspect received 71.4% of respondents who said strongly agree and 28.2% who answered agreed. As a result, it can be stated that respondents believe it is critical to be environmentally conscious to protecting nature and the earth. This study demonstrates the importance of environmental awareness in protecting nature and respecting the earth’s ecology.
