摘　要 本研究旨在探討碳足跡認知、碳足跡態度間的意涵與相互關係，並分析影響不同背景變項的受訪者，在碳足跡認知與態度方面是否存在顯著的差異。本研究以大學以上(含在學)學歷之民眾為主要對象，採封閉式問卷調查，自民國100年10月27日起至101年4月30日止，共計回收1509份，刪除無效問卷後，總計有效回收問卷總份數為1486份，有效問卷回收比率為98.5％。 研究結果顯示大學以上學歷的受訪者在碳足跡相關環保知識的認知正確性方面，有待加強；對於碳足跡的認知與態度均屬於中上程度，且碳足跡認知與碳足跡態度存在中度正相關；婚姻狀況、年齡別與學院別不同，受訪者的碳足跡認知與態度有部分顯著的不同。而在碳足跡的知識方面：工學院正確性最高；男性的正確性高於女性；21歲以下受訪者的正確性優於其他年齡層、且未婚的受訪者正確性亦高於已婚的受訪者。電力來源方面：男性受訪者、20歲以下、醫學院背景、未婚受訪者的填答正確性雖相對較高於其他族群，但仍只有40%上下。垃圾處理方式方面：男性受訪者、31-40歲的受訪者、理學院背景、未婚受訪者的填答正確性雖相對較高於其他族群，但仍都只有60％上下。迴歸分析：預測變項「碳足跡認知」對於「碳足跡態度」具有顯著的預測力。 本研究建議政府或民間之相關單位應善用媒體等傳播系統加強宣導碳足跡、碳排放及碳標籤等觀念，舉辦相關活動，提供獎勵制度並將相關知識融入學校教育課程當中，協助民眾建立正確、健康的碳知識與認知，進而從日常生活中落實低碳生活。

Abstract This study aims to discuss the issue of carbon footprint awareness, carbon footprint attitude and mutual relations. To analyze the influence of different backgrounds of respondents is also investigated and whether there are significant differences in the carbon footprint awareness and attitudes. In this study, the people with university degree are surveyed using the enclosed questionnaires, between Oct. 27, 2011 through Apr. 30, 2012. A total of 1509 questionnaires is recovered. To delete the invalid questionnaires, the total number of valid copies is 1486 with the recovery rate of 98.5%. The results showed that respondents with a university degree or above in the cognitive correctness of the carbon footprint related to environmental knowledge needs to be strengthened. The carbon footprint awareness and attitudes are moderate, and carbon footprint awareness and carbon footprint attitude show a moderate positive correlation. Marital status, age, and different colleges of respondents demonstrated different awareness and attitudes toward carbon footprint. The knowledge of carbon footprint: the college of engineering, males, the age of 21 or below are better than the counter parts. Source of electricity power: the male respondents, 20 years of age, medical school background, single people of the respondents are relatively better than the others, but still not better than 40%. Garbage disposal methods: male respondents, 31-40-year-old respondents, the background of natural science, single people of the respondents are relatively better than the others, but still only about 60%. Data regression analysis: the response curve of the "carbon footprint cognitive" and the “carbon footprint attitude” are significant. This study suggests that the government or private companies should promote the media and other communication systems to enhance the awareness of carbon footprint, carbon emissions and carbon labelling. Organizing related activities with incentives can also be beneficial. Related knowledge blended into the school education curriculum should be better to establish a correct, healthy carbon knowledge and awareness, and thereby to implement low-carbon life-style into people’s daily life.
