A newly released survey of over 20 countries spanning the globe, shows that global climate opinion is in recession, with declines in the public’s sympathy towards and salience of climate change at the global level across a majority of indicators which CORE’s Global Tracker of Public Climate Opinion collects.

This data forms part of CORE’s attempts to provide a global picture of public and investor attitudes towards climate change. For investor polling, see here.
Methodology Note: This data provides a picture of public attitudes towards climate, across a range of key attitudes in over 20 countries around the world. To paint this picture, the study has asked 30-40 questions to nationally representative samples covering issue sympathy, issue salience, and behavior around climate action. The polling was done online via Pollfish for most geographies in August 2025 and via Dynata for Scandinavian countries and Senegal, locales where Pollfish could not provide data. In countries with relatively low levels of internet penetration, particularly in the global south, the data should be considered as online representative, with samples leaning younger, urban, and educated. The next wave of data collection is planned for December/January of 2025/2026.
