The Guardian - A global study of 130,000 people in 125 countries found that 80 to 89% of people around the world want more to be done about the climate crisis – but mistakenly assume their peers do not.
More than two-thirds said they were willing to give 1% of their income to fight the climate crisis. Crucially, however, they thought only a minority of other people – 43% – would be willing to do the same.
People in China, the world’s biggest polluter, were among the most concerned, with 97% saying the Chinese government should do more to fight the climate crisis and four out of five willing to give 1% of their income.
The world’s second biggest polluter, the US, was near the bottom, but still had about three-quarters of its citizens saying its government should do more with almost half willing to contribute.
