More than one-third of people in Germany believe that political measures to help the environment will make their lives worse – significantly fewer, around one-fifth, feel that environmental policy will improve their lives. And many of those surveyed would like to see an „affordable“ climate policy that acts „with common sense.“ These are the key findings of a recent survey by the More in Common organization, which has been conducting regular surveys on the mood of German society since 2019. The new survey for the European elections also includes a section specifically on climate policy.
