Son yıllarda ambalajlı ürünlere yönelik giderek artan talep, ambalaj atıkları sorununu önemli bir konu haline getirmiştir. Ambalaj atıklarının geri dönüştürülmesiyle, atıkların neden olduğu kirliliğin insan sağlığına ve çevreye verdiği zararlar azaltılırken, aynı zamanda ciddi oranda ekonomik tasarruf sağlanmış olmaktadır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, tüketicilerin evsel ambalaj atıklarının geri dönüşümüne ilişkin davranış farklılıklarını cinsiyete göre ortaya koymaktır. Araştırma verileri, Samsun ili kentsel alanda ikamet eden 384 tüketiciyle yapılan anketlerden elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre tüketiciler; insan sağlığı ve sürdürülebilir çevre açısından cam, ucuzluk açısından plastik, kullanım kolaylığı açısından ise kağıt/karton ambalajları tercih edilebileceklerini ifade etmişlerdir. Tüketiciler, kullanım sonrası ortaya çıkan cam dışındaki tüm ambalaj atıklarını çoğunlukla çöpe atmaktadır. Bu sonuç, ambalaj atıklarının geri dönüşümüne ilişkin tüketici bilincinin yeterince oluşmadığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca ambalaj atıklarının geri dönüşümü konusunda, kadınlar erkeklerden daha bilinçli davranış sergilemektedir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre; ambalajlarla ilgili insan sağlığı, sürdürülebilir çevre, ucuzluk ve kullanım kolaylığı yönünden önemli bir farkındalık olmasına rağmen, bu durumun geri dönüşüm davranışına yansımadığı görülmektedir. Bu bağlamda geri dönüşüm konusunda tüketicinin birey olarak sorumluluk üstlenmesi gerekmekte, toplumsal bilinçlenmenin sağlanmasında ise ilgili kurumlara önemli görevler düşmektedir.
