Results from Climate Change Survey
Now that we have a second Climate Change survey for everyone to take (http://goo.gl/zymMpi), it is as good of a time as any to go over the results of the first one.
Climate Change Survey
Observations:
- While most people readily recycle, composting is a different story with people being pretty split about their composting frequency
- The majority of the people surveyed have at least some interest in environmental topics
- Charts and graphs are easily the most preferred method of viewing data
- People don't seem to have a preference on the geography of environmental topics
- The vast majority of people surveyed are "absolutely" concerned with climate change
- Most people seem to agree that there is human interaction is one of the factors leading to climate change, but a good chunk of people are not completely discounting any natural cycles that are also in play
- Over 2/3 of the people surveyed would be interested in learning about ways they could help slow down climate change, while just under 2/3 of them are definitely interested in a website where they could learn such things (hint, hint)

Climate Change Survey Trends (so far)
It's still fairly early-on, but here are some of the trends in the results from our ongoing Climate Change survey (take it if you haven't already: http://goo.gl/fw6oby):
Once more results are in we will go ahead and post the full results of the survey. Take the survey to contribute to these results.
Follow @ecopol_project- 75% of the people recycle at least half the time
- 50% of the people do not compost at all
- 25% of the people have definite interest in environmental topics, while 37.5% "sort of" have interest
- 62.5% of the people don't really consider themselves to be green
- 50% of the people prefer to view data in chart and graph form
- 50% of the people have no preference between global, national, or local environmental topics --- or simply don't care
- 50% of the people are concerned with climate change, while 37.5% of the people are not at all concerned with it
- 87.5% of the people believe a combination of factors are the primary cause of climate change
- 37.% of the people are definitely interested in learning about ways they could possibly slow down climate change
- 40% of the people are definitely interested in a website where they can learn about things they could do on a daily basis to help slow down climate change
Once more results are in we will go ahead and post the full results of the survey. Take the survey to contribute to these results.
