This lack of awareness ranges from China (41.1 %) to 58.0 % in India, with only 7.9 % demonstrating high climate knowledge, ranging from 3.6 % in India to 12.8 %. % in Brazil. This climate fatigue, reflected in the numbers, is most evident in opinions about rising temperatures. Awareness of the risks of temperatures exceeding 1.5\u00b0C has decreased from 67 % to 50 % in two years. In contrast, 35% of respondents now believe that nature and humans can adapt without serious impacts, up from 20% in 2021. This complacency, especially in disaster-prone countries like India (52%) and China (49%), is very worrying. The general lack of climate literacy affects everything from scientific knowledge to political awareness and understanding of the carbon footprint. Some 51% believe that only stopping emissions will prevent the climate crisis, with this view ranging from 35% in France to 61% in China. Only 31% of respondents are aware of the need to drastically reduce emissions, compared to 26% in the US and 43% in France.
