Reflecting growing awareness of climate change, an average of almost (68%) globally are willing to accept new policies that encourage the adoption of sustainable technologies.

Mexicans want more roads for pedestrians and bicycles 70% of Mexicans surveyed want a mobility policy that favors the creation of new road spaces for pedestrians and cyclists. Mexico is the second country in the general table in this area, only behind Peru (71%). 2.

Global Congo Email List policies When it comes to who is responsible for educating the public about climate change, more than half of Mexicans (52%) agreed to hold the government or elected candidate responsible. 45% attribute it to the media. The global average that thinks the same way is (59%). The most popular policy, with an overall average of (68%) of citizens surveyed supporting, was government spending on subsidies to make technology that generates clean energy cheaper, for example: solar panels and electric vehicles.

Just over 4 in 10 think it is the responsibility of local governments and just over a third (34%) would consider the media to be responsible. Then scientists (27%), schools (24%), businesses (20%), and environmental activists/activist groups (19%). Variations by country: In China (68%) and Colombia (53%), the highest level of responsibility for educating the public about climate change is considered to lie with local government (vs. global average of 43% ). In Peru (58%) and Saudi Arabia (43%), citizens suggest that the media has the greatest responsibility for driving climate change education (versus the global average of 34%). Scientists rank fourth in terms of responsibility for climate education based on the global average (27%), but rank second in Canada (40%), France (35%) and Great Britain (35%). Spain stands out with citizens choosing schools (37%) as responsible for climate education compared to a world average of 24%.
