Poll: 90 Percent of Americans Concerned about Environment
Nearly 56 percent of the poll's respondents are concerned about the possibility of running out of clean, drinkable water in their lifetime.
Soaring energy prices, an increase in global warming, news about the rise in CO2 levels and pollution, and rapid deforestation may explain why 90 percent of Americans are somewhat and very concerned about the future of the environment. This is the finding from the latest GMI Poll, a global survey of 9,000 online consumers in nine countries.
With Earth Day quickly approaching, the good news is that more people in the United States and around the world are embracing alternative energy to reduce the strain on the environment and dependency on fossil fuel, as well as incorporating “green” habits into their daily routine.
