The study was conducted to find out the level of awareness among women as the environmental degradation touching such alarming proportions it is felt that we all must be pro-active in preserving it. With this object, it was decided to find out a target group and analyze its awareness about the environmental concerns. The effort was to look for a group whose awareness would impact not only itself but a large number of people around. Teachers could be one such group, the other could be students. The search ultimately narrowed down to women, whose awareness of the environmental concerns would be beneficial for the entire family. Besides, she is the one who could inculcate the positive attitude about the issue among the children right from childhood, which would go a long way in preserving the environment. Therefore, we prepared a questionnaire to test environmental awareness among women of different age groups staying at Summer Hill, Shimla.
