Abstract： Environmental awareness is the stable attitude towards environment formulated by urban residents, who in turn develop a conscious behavior to protect environment. So it is of great significance to investigate their environmental awareness. A model of citizens environmental awareness is constructed in this paper on the related researches in line with the characteristics of urban citizens. And assessing the data and testing the model can reveal that this consciousness is subject to multiple factors, among which the environmental attitude is the key. The change of the urban citizen's attitude towards environmental protection is mainly attributed to education, promulgation and guidance. The environmental cases in real life have great influence on citizens, so it is necessary to popularize environmental knowledge so as to improve the urban citizens' behavior to environment on the base of raising their environmental consciousness.
