Four waste management concepts as waste reduction,

the surveys including of these subjects. It was assumed that environmental
values, situational and social characteristics, and psychological factors all
play a significant role in the prediction of waste management behavior, within
the context of a core intention-behavior relationship. This study was tested on
municipal solid waste management survey of the Black Sea Region of Turkey. It
was found that the predictors of reduction, reuse, recycling and best available
technology behavior differed significantly, with reduction and reuse being
predicted by underlying environmental values, knowledge, and concern-based
variables. It was determined that the best practices below-average interest in
techniques. Recycling behavior was, in contrast, characterized as highly
normative behavior.
