Fossil fuels are one of the world's major sources of carbon emissions, driving climate change. The United Nations (UN) has long urged all countries to swiftly transition to renewable energy as a climate change mitigation effort in the energy sector.

According to an Ipsos survey for the World Economic Forum, global citizens now highly prioritize and support the energy transition from fossil fuels to more environmentally friendly sources.

This is evidenced by 84% of the global population stating that transitioning from fossil fuels to sustainable energy within the next five years is very important.

Looking at individual countries, citizens in South Africa and Peru showed the strongest support for the transition from fossil fuels, with 93% in favor. This was followed by Argentina and Chile, both at 92%, and Colombia at 91%.

This survey was conducted online from February 18 to March 4, 2022, involving 22,534 respondents aged 16-74 across 30 countries.
