Sažetak

In modern society waste and rubbish become an ecological problem whose solution is of utmost importance. Alongside technological solutions and strategies in waste management, everyday behavior of individuals is also crucial in reducing communal waste. In this work presented are the results of the research on the practices of domestic waste management of the population of Split. The research was conducted to determine ecological sensitivity of the citizens regarding the issue of waste. According to the results it was found that, overall, in everyday practices of domestic waste management, there is no sensitivity. The respondents mostly manage package waste, in comparison with other types of waste which are not included, in the buying off system. Considering demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, certain groups are more sensitive than others. The reduction of waste production has been found in five types of behavior exhibited by more than half of the respondents, which exceeds in some aspects the percentage of respondents who manage package waste. Readiness to act ecologically regarding the issue of waste has been exhibited by less than half of the respondents on most activities. Unlike the results of everyday practices and readiness to act, the respondents very highly value environment in Croatia, see the need for ecological education, exhibit care and importance of finding the solution for the issue of waste and give priority to ecological conservation over economic growth.
