Adequate knowledge of environmental sustainability is essential to the success of its global efforts. Thus, a study was conducted to investigate into the level of awareness of environmental sustainability in a developed city of Lahore, Punjab province, Pakistan. Data for the investigation was generated through the survey questionnaires across randomly selected adult inhabitants. Of the entire questionnaire, respondents responded according to their perceptions. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were conducted. Descriptive analysis showed that most of the respondents had the knowledge of environmental sustainability. It is recommended that information on environmental sustainability should be made available and be widely disseminated, especially its impacts and that international communities in conjunction with the national government should take charge of the control and of the associated risks. Further investigation is required to assess the strategies for coping and adapting to the effects of environmental sustainability in the area being studied.
