Over 40% of Poles ready to act pro-eco regardless of the costs

The vast majority of Poles, 82 percent, are aware of the ecological problems our planet faces, show results from a study conducted by Quality Watch for the BIG InfoMonitor Debtors Register, a Warsaw-based financial consultant. More often, the subject of the climate crisis is recognized by people aged 35 or more (86 percent), while for the younger the percentage is 75 percent. The implementation of pro-ecological activities, regardless of the costs they incur personally, was declared by 44 percent of respondents.

“Definitely more than half of the respondents (65 percent) believe that environmental protection is a necessity. Every fifth considers this problem important, although at the same time admits that they have other priorities. Only 16 percent do not attach importance to environmental problems. Toward the need to protect the environment, more often women indicate the highest priority (71 percent) compared to men (59 percent). Interestingly, analyzing the results from the perspective of the age of the respondents, the greatest importance to environmental protection is paid by people over 45 years (74 percent),” states the report published on June 4.
