🌍 Ten years ago, world leaders came together to sign the Paris Agreement and set the tone for global climate action. Now, at this big milestone, a CGTN poll of 33,000 people in 48 countries shows the world is ready for practical steps to tackle climate change.
Here are the key takeaways:
- ⚡ 91% say extreme weather is happening more often.
- ❗ 89.2% see rapid climate deterioration.
- ⏰ 90% agree that urgent action is a global priority.
The poll also highlights a call for stronger international cooperation: 85% think working together is the key to success. There's also a clear critique of developed nations, with over 75% saying they need to step up on climate aid and accountability. 🌐💪
Interestingly, respondents in the Global South show the highest enthusiasm for green living and clean industries: 94.6% are ready to adopt energy-saving habits, and 96.2% want to fast-track green industries. That's a major green wave! 🌱
When it comes to China’s role, 76.7% say China is controlling emissions effectively, and nearly 80% believe its clean energy push sets a great example. Younger respondents and those from the Global South especially cheer on China’s leadership. 🇨🇳✨
With the Paris Agreement hitting its 10th year, the world is watching: will countries deliver on their promises? One thing’s clear—people everywhere want action, not just promises. Let’s keep the momentum going! 🚀
