Abstract

The decreasing of environmental quality in Jakarta caused by the interference of the Jakarta citizens itself, but there are still many attempts by some citizens and governments to improve the environment with pro-environment behaviour. One of the most significant factors contributing to pro-environmental behaviour is the willingness to sacrifice (WtS). This study aims to see whether WtS contributes significantly to pro-environmental behaviour. The number of samples in this study was 332 samples with characteristics of age 21-65 years old and domiciled in Jakarta. In this study, the instruments are the General Ecological Behavior and Willingness to Sacrifice for The Environment. Based on the result of regression, there is a significant role between WtS toward pro-environmental behaviour (p = 0.001, p <0.05) and R2 0.031. For further research, it is expected to add other factors such as attitudes toward the environment and commitment to the environment that can form the pro-environmental behaviour in one study.
