Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the role of Saudi universities in promoting green education culture and identified obstacles and ways to overcome them. A questionnaire was used to gather data from 383 students from various universities. Results showed that green education culture in Saudi universities was rated as average, while obstacles were rated high. Ways to overcome these obstacles were also rated high. Gender, university, and academic level did not significantly affect the results. Recommendations included offering specialized courses on environmental culture, employing student activities focused on environmental issues, and implementing a renewable energy management project in Saudi universities.
