Germans are the least likely to think mankind is responsible for the changing climate
Most Europeans continue to be worried about climate change, according to a new YouGov Eurotrack survey.
A majority of adults in Italy (83%), Spain (77%), France (77%), Germany (66%), Denmark (62%), Sweden (61%) and Britain (59%) all say they are worried about climate change and its effects. This represents a minor drop in most countries since YouGov last asked in September.
Italians are the most likely to be “very worried”, at 40% compared to 20-34% in the other countries.
That mankind is responsible for the world’s changing climate is widely accepted across Western Europe. Italians are the most likely to think so, at 81%. Germans are notably less likely than any of their neighbours to think so, at 63%. One in five Germans say that the climate is changing, but not because of human activity.
