According to the Ipsos Earth Day 2023 report, an average of 31% of the world’s population agrees with the statement that their country’s leadership, companies, and citizens should have a coordinated action plan to stop climate change.

This ratio in our country is exactly half (15%), which makes us the most pessimistic nation after Japan among the 29 countries included in the research. Compared to this, we attach more importance than the world average to the fact that the government of our country takes immediate action to combat climate change, otherwise it will let the Hungarian population down (61% vs 65%). 71% agree that the country should do much more for the sake of the matter than it has so far (the global value is 66%). Only a tenth of the Hungarian adult population believes that we would be ahead in the fight against climate change at the global level, which makes us the nation practicing the greatest self-criticism. However, the Hungarians do not shift the full responsibility to the leadership of the country, since six out of ten compatriots admit that if there was no breach at the level of individuals.
