Public Environment Poll

A new survey provides insight on the green movement in the US.

November 18, 2009

Although people in the US might know how to help the environment, they don’t always take action to do so, according to a poll released on November 17. The telephone survey, conducted by Associated Press and NBC Universal, found a significant drop between whether people believe a particular action would help the environment and whether they would likely carry out that action. Income is one mitigating factor; 45 percent of respondents welcome the idea of hybrid cars, but only 20 percent would actually buy one, most likely because of the cost. The poll was conducted from November 5 to November 9 with 1,006 randomly selected adults.
