Abstract : Current environmental problems are still seriously elevating. One way to reduce the threat of environmental problems is to change students’ perspective and behavior to be more concerned toward the environment. This research aims to describe the environmental care attitude of student or biology teacher candidates in University of Papua. The sample in this study amounted to 75 respondents to biology teacher candidates. The data was collected by disseminating questionnaires through Google Form due to the pandemic conditions of Covid-19. The environmental care attitude questionnaire was organized based on 5 indicators, namely limits to growth attitude, anti-anthropocentrism, balance of nature, anti-exemptionalism eco-crisis. The results of the analysis showed that the highest attitude was on the eco-crisis indicator with an average value of 4.00, followed by the balance of nature attitude indicator with an average of 3.99, the limits to growth attitude indicator with an average of 3.81, the anti-anthropocentrism attitude indicator averaging 3.61 and the anti-exemptionalism attitude indicator averaging 3.48. The environmental attitude category was dominated by the good category of 86.7%, the excellent category by 8.0% and the low category by 5.30% and there was no apathy category / no matter the environment. Thus, in general, the students’ attitude of caring toward the environment of Biology Study Program in the University of Papua is within the category of Good.
