Understanding Citizens’ Attitudes Towards Energy and Climate Issues. A Comprehensive Survey Analysis
Abstract
Understanding public attitudes becomes crucial in the current context, which is defined by climate change and a critical need for sustainable solutions for energy sources. A questionnaire by the Pew Research Center, conducted through the American Trends Panel (ATP), explores the public’s opinions on various emerging energy technologies, preferred energy sources, knowledge of the nation’s energy dependence and attitudes toward environmental policies and climate change. The findings offer an insightful perspective on the interests and people’s concerns and may influence future innovations and policies in the energy sector.
