Contentment with the Environment

In the March survey, 47 % of respondents expressed their contentment with the environment in this country, while the same number - 46 % - were not satisfied. Greater contentment with the environment can be seen in the case of the place where they live – 76 %, while about a quarter of the respondents (23 %) are not satisfied with the environment in their neighbourhood. We also asked the people to which degree they themselves contributed to the protection of the environment with their conduct.

Approximately two thirds of citizens (69 %) stated that they almost always sorted ordinary and hazardous waste. Less than a half of the respondents try to save energy, but only a quarter preferentially buy environment-friendly products. The lowest figures were recorded for our willingness to cut down on car travel– only 15 % of us.
