The study of consumer behavior towards green products has become a very important research nowadays. Every human being requires a good quality of environment and good health status in order to guarantee a useful life for self and family. The needs for green products in the daily lives of individuals are necessary today. So, a deeper study of the intention to use green products may be a reference to

Among the three independent variables, the attitude is most influenced intention to use green products because it has the highest regression. This means, the higher the positive attitude of consumers towards green products, the higher their intention to use the product. As a result, retailers and marketers should increase consumers‟ desire to use green products by creating an effective marketing strategy.
