Climate Change in the Latino Mind


B.1. Should the U.S. Act on Global Warming?

B.1.1. A large majority of Latinos think the U.S. should reduce its greenhouse gas emissions “regardless of what other countries do.”

Nearly seven in ten Latinos (68%) think the U.S. should reduce its greenhouse gas emissions “regardless of what other countries do.” About the same number of non-Latinos (66%) also think the U.S. should reduce its greenhouse gas emissions regardless of other countries’ actions.

B.1.2. Half of Latinos think the U.S. should make a large-scale effort to reduce global warming.

Half of Latinos (50%) think the U.S. should make a large-scale effort to reduce global warming, even if it has large economic costs. A majority of Spanish-language Latinos (57%) think the U.S. should make a large-scale effort.

By contrast, only about one in three non-Latinos (33%) think the U.S. should make a large-scale effort to reduce global warming, even if it has large economic costs.
