Abstract

Green entrepreneurship is an important way to develop a local future economy, and native sentiment is associated with returning to one's hometown to start a business, so the relationship between college students' local feelings and return home green entrepreneurial intention, and the moderating roles of the community of shared future for mankind and teacher endogenous dynamics were investigated in Shandong Province, China. In this study, data were collected from teachers and college students in 28 colleges and universities in Shandong Province, China, through a purposive sampling method, and 291 valid paired questionnaires were collected (validity rate 89.53%). The results showed that the Chinese college students’ local feelings were positively correlated with return home green entrepreneurial intention; the community of shared future for mankind had a significant positive moderating effect, and there was no facilitating effect of teacher endogenous dynamics in Shandong Province, China. Finally, it is suggested that in entrepreneurship education in Shandong province colleges and universities, the focus should be on fostering students' hometown sentiment and human coexistence beliefs to enhance college students' future green entrepreneurial practices adequately.
