Global surveys show growing concern about climate change

Polls show that climate change has become a key issue for most people around the world. But views on the personal impacts or how to address the global challenge vary widely. Some call for more ambition, others criticise that too much is being asked of their country. This factsheet captures people's views on different aspects of climate change by summarising the findings of major opinion polls that either focus exclusively on the change or include questions about it.
