Environment and Health

Environmental problems endanger health

22% of citizens today feel strongly or very strongly that environmental problems are having a negative affect on their health. The number of those who believe that the environment will strongly or very strongly endanger the health of our children and grandchildren in 25 years has risen sharply. Three-quarters of those surveyed are convinced of this.

Badly-informed about healthiness and environmental-friendliness of foods and products

A majority (62%) of those surveyed felt badly-informed about the healthiness and environmental-friendliness of food and products. Only 2% felt very well informed, and a good one-third felt well-informed.
