Summary/Abstract: Our research is based on Kollmuss and Agyeman’s (2002) model and aims to analyse the used battery collection behaviour of 163 pupils in a secondary school in France, to identify the variables likely to predict this behaviour, and to study how this effect was maintained over 3 years and 10 years. It shows that an awareness-raising campaign can have an impact on sustainable behaviours, if participants are reminded of this action 10 year later.
