Is Climate Change Seen to Be a Threat?
Public opinion is in relative agreement that climate change is a threat to us (68%), with a larger part (51%) considering it to be one of many dangers and a smaller part (17%) perceiving it as one of the greatest threats to our civilisation. On the other hand, every fifth respondent (21%) does not think climate change is a particularly dangerous phenomenon, though only a scant 5% from within this group do not associate it with danger at all. Climate denialism, the claim that there is no such thing as global heating, is a marginal position, held by only 3% of those surveyed.
