Omas for Future Protest
According to a new survey, climate action is equally important to all generations. „Omas for Future“ protest in Munich.

According to a representative survey by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, there is no intergenerational conflict regarding the climate. Climate action is even more important to age groups over 55 than to younger generations. In the age group of 56 to 65, 44 percent stated that protecting the climate is very important to them. In the 26 to 35 age group, the value was 30 percent. However, young people are more willing to prioritize combating climate change over economic growth. The differences are not too pronounced, though. Overall, respondents advocate for a balance between growth and climate action. The Konrad Adenauer Foundation surveyed over 4,000 people living in Germany through telephone interviews.
