Who thinks what about climate change? Pew Research Centre

It’s no secret that climate change touches everyone everywhere in some way, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, income level, or gender. But with some 200 or so nations (depending on how you count them) sharing the planet, each with their own culture and way of doing things, not everyone everywhere sees the issue the same way. And if we’re going to build a truly global movement to fight climate change, we’ve got to understand what it looks like from as many worldviews as possible.

To help close this knowledge gap, the Pew Research Center interviewed 45,435 people across 40 nations between March and May of 2015. The study sought to answer some tough questions, including how different nations view the seriousness of climate change, what consequences worry people the most, which groups are most concerned, and what people think is necessary to address the crisis. The results were enlightening and in this post, we discuss some of the key findings.
