This particular study is about the beliefs people had in 2023. The questions nearly 60,000 people in 63 countries were asked regarding their beliefs were whether action was necessary to avoid a global catastrophe, whether humans were causing climate change, whether it was a serious threat to humanity, and whether it was a global emergency. This \"belief\" in climate change averaged 86% across those 63 countries. \nThe original data we used came from The Lloyd’s Register Foundation World Risk Poll. That survey was conducted by Gallup in 2021.\n\n[1] [Madalina Vlasceanu et al, \"Addressing climate change with behavioral science: A global intervention tournament in 63 countries\", published in Science Advances in February 2024](https:\u002F\u002Fwww.science.org\u002Fdoi\u002F10.1126\u002Fsciadv.adj5778) \n\n[2] [Our World In Data – More people care about climate change than you think](https:\u002F\u002Fourworldindata.org\u002Fclimate-change-support)\n\n[3]  [The Lloyd's Register Foundation World Risk Poll 2021](https:\u002F\u002Fwrp.lrfoundation.org.uk\u002FLRF_2021_report_risk-in-the-covid-age_online_version.pdf)     \n\n[4]  [The Lloyd's Register Foundation World Risk Poll 2021 - Climate change Perception Dataset - v2 via Gapminder](https:\u002F\u002Fdocs.google.com\u002Fspreadsheets\u002Fd\u002F1OYxxRgJ0N_3TxhdvhNdrnPI2I9CUPOngZpGGKlFhL6A\u002Fedit#gid=501532268) ","Across the world, more than half of people see climate change as a risk. As most people have realized the risk, it's time for action. If politicians believe that few people are worried, then they might not dare to initiate the reforms that are needed. \n\n### Why is it a problem that people are wrong about this?\nAn illusion of conflict may stop us from doing what everyone understands must be done to make sure the planet is habitable for many future generations to come.\n\n### Why are people wrong about this?\nThe people who are skeptical about climate change have often been given time to express their views in the media, which might have created a false sense of how common their views are.\n"]
