Summary:碩士 === 亞洲大學 === 休閒與遊憩管理學系碩士在職專班 === 101 === Nowadays global warning is an essential issue. People should be devoted to prevent the situation from being worse. However, the need of different types of vehicles has been increased, especially in scenic areas, so people should try to decrease the pollution while traveling. In Taiwan, Kenting National Park is one of the popular places for leisure. The development of rental electric scooters has become more and more popular in this area. Therefore, this study explores the environmental awareness of the tourists who rent electric scooters and the relationship between their carbon footprint and their satisfaction among electric scooters. This will be helpful for the government to develop vehicles with environmental protection. This study used questionnaires to collect data. There were 360 questionnaires conducted randomly with 15 of them being invalid. This made a valid participation rate of 97.2%. The researcher utilized independent-samples t-test and one-way ANOVA to analyze collected data. The result shows that most tourists in Kenting riding electric scooters belong to low-carbon people. This indicates that most of people riding electric scooters have the environmental awareness. In addition, more than a half of subjects are satisfied with the electric scooters; moreover, low carbon tourists have higher satisfaction among electric scooters.
