Purpose: This study aims to link environmental concerns and the theory of planned behavior to the intention to purchase green products. Methodology/approach: This research was conducted from December 2023 to January 2024 with 359 respondents using convenience sampling method. The research object is the purchaser of green products in Indonesia. Data analysis was performed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). Results/findings: The results show that environmental concern significantly and positively affects green attitudes. Green attitude, green behavior control, and green product awareness all had significant positive effects on green purchase intention. Green attitude mediates the effect of environmental concern on the intention to purchase green products. This study found that subjective green norms do not significantly affect green purchase intentions. Conclusions: In Indonesia, green purchase intention is primarily driven by environmental concern, attitude, control, and awareness, while subjective norms have no effect. Community campaigns are needed to strengthen the social influence of eco-friendly consumption. Limitations: The use of convenience sampling method in data collection may lead to the issue that not all participants represent the general population. Additionally, this study did not specifically focus on the use of environmentally friendly products such as electronics, vehicles, or food.

This will raise public awareness of environmental issues in Indonesia.
