A new survey among
over 2,000 U.S. adults
was conducted online
by The Harris Poll,
on behalf of Inerjys
Ventures:
38% of Americans believe
that climate change
will damage the U.S.
economy if it is
not addressed.
19% of Americans believe
it will cost more
to solve climate change
globally, than it would
cost to fix the problems
that climate change causes.
25% of Americans
don’t believe efforts from
U.S. entrepreneurs/start-up
companies are important
in the fight against
climate change
35% of Americans believe
there is not enough money
being invested in technology,
that could help prevent
or fix climate change.
The survey suggests that
Americans are confused
about climate change
blame and responsibility,
when looking at government,
large corporations, entrepreneurs,
and individuals or investors.
42% of Americans believe
the U.S. government
has more of a responsibility
than U.S. companies to address
issues in America that cause
climate change.
