A.2.1. Three in four Latinos are worried about global warming; one in three are “very worried.”
More than three in four Latinos (78%) say they are at least “somewhat worried” about global warming, including about eight in ten Spanish-language Latinos (82%). About one in three Latinos (35%) are “very worried.”
By contrast, a smaller majority of non-Latinos (56%) are worried about global warming, including only about one in six (16%) who are “very worried.”
