Climate change is one of several environmental issues highlighted by people around the world. This is evident from the findings of Ipsos Global, a research institution collaborating with EDF, a French multinational electric utility company.

The research shows that 46% of respondents consider climate change to be an environmental issue receiving attention or highlighting in their country.

Intertwined with this, issues of extreme climate change such as floods, heat, drought, storms, and forest fires also received attention from 43% of respondents.

Waste accumulation, packaging, and plastic received attention from 41% of respondents. Following this, air pollution received a proportion of 37%. In addition, there are also issues regarding the depletion of water, land, and forest resources, which received attention from 36% of respondents.

Ipsos mentions that Indonesia is among the countries that have chosen extreme climate change as a significant issue, with a considerable 5-point increase. This indicates that Indonesian respondents increasingly consider this issue worthy of attention.

The greatest progress was in South Africa, Morocco, and South Korea, with respective point increases of 17, 16, and 12.

The data presented in the research was processed and combined during 2021-2022. The research methodology was conducted online from August 30 to September 26, 2022.

A total of 24,001 people from 30 countries over the age of 16 were respondents. EDF and Ipsos believe this number represents 2/3 of the world's population.

The following are the proportions and environmental issues that respondents considered to be highlighted in their respective countries:

1. Climate change 46%
2. Extreme climate change (floods, heat, drought, storms, forest fires) 43%
3. Accumulation of waste, plastic, packaging 41%
