The results of the study indicate that high interest in agriculture activities and leisure time was two main factors respondent involve in Green Earth Program. Conversely, lack of time is the main factor contributed to ignorance of Green Earth Program.

Government, Non Government Organization (NGO), and media should play an important role in order to develop higher awareness of Green Earth Program to the public.
