Abstract

In a time of environmental destruction, global warming, and continuous rise in the earth’s temperature, Green Entrepreneurship has emerged as a potential solution through which ecological, economic, and social sustainability can be attained. Hence the current is operationalized in order to understand the contribution of Entrepreneurial Motivation (MOT) and University Support (SUP) in enhancing Green Entrepreneurial Behavior (BEH) powered by Entrepreneurship Education (EDU), Perceived-ability to use Technology (TEC), and Commitment to Environment (CMT). On the dataset of 487 students from Chinese education institutions, the application of PLS-SEM reported significant and positive associations among the proposed hypotheses. Precisely, EDU, TEC, and CMT are reported to enhance the level of SUP, MOT, and BEH, whereas the role of SUP and MOT in enhancing BEH is also reported. Based on the findings, there are different managerial implications that the current study has proposed.
