Euronews.green writes that this is the conclusion of a survey that included 26.358 citizens of the EU, belonging to different social and demographic groups. The survey was carried on behalf of the European Commission and the results found that 93% of the bloc's population believe that climate change is a serious issue.

In seven countries, including Belgium, Denmark and Germany, climate change is the most pressing issue as of right now, while in 16 out of 27 states, it is among the first three biggest issues the world's currently facing.

People in Luxembourg are the most active when taking active climate action, with 82% of the population doing something to try and mitigate the effects of global warming, while Finland and Sweden are following, with 81% of the population getting involved.

At the other end of the scale, Poland, Bulgaria and Romania take the least climate action per citizen, with 39%, 35% and 29% respectively.

It doesn't have to be a difficult process, as people in Luxembourg show. The most common climate activity they did was reducing their trash and sorting it for recycling. This was also a popular action in Finland and Sweden, where citizens also reduced the amount of packaging used.

Using alternative transport solutions, like public transport or bicycle are other proven sustainability efforts in these countries. Despite many people taking climate action, only 35% of the EU's population believe they are responsible for climate change and would rather press the governments to tackle this issue.

Finnish people are the only in Europe who believe their rulers are doing enough to fight the climate crisis and then it's their responsibility to take care of the issue, as well.

EU green chief Frans Timmermans said that "European citizens understand the threat of climate change, and continue to support climate action by the EU, national governments, business and individuals. The results of this survey are a powerful reminder that popular support to advance with the European Green Deal remains as high as ever. It is up to politicians and decision-makers to heed that call."
