The natural environment, which is the living environment of all living things; Technological advances and industrialization activities are being affected more and more negatively every day. Increasing energy demand and resource consumption due to population growth lead to negative consequences on ecological balance, such as environmental pollution, climate change and loss of natural environments. Health services have also increased resource use with the advancement of technology and caused negative effects on the environment. Health services have been slow to understand their impact on the environment. The aim of the study is to determine the environmental awareness and environmental attitude levels of physiotherapy and rehabilitation department students, to popularize the field of "Environmental Physiotherapy" and to enable the training of physiotherapist candidates with high environmental awareness.
