\"\"<\/a>The new data coming from the Science in Society Monitor<\/a> by Observa about public perception on climate changes, on the occasion of the Copenhagen International Conference.<\/p>\n

Italians\u2019 sensitivity towards climate has decreased: over the past two years perception that the Earth climate is becoming warmer has decreased significantly.<\/p>\n

In comparison to 2007, the percentage of citizens persuaded that climate is actually changing has decreased from 90% to 71,7%.<\/p>\n

Among those, however, the relevance of data and scientific studies increases: in 2007 for two out of three perception on global warming was based on personal experience. Today the data provided by scientists are decisive for 38% – a figure almost doubled compared to 18.7% in 2007. The significance attributed to scientific data is particularly pronounced among graduates, while among the less educated prevails an opinion built upon one\u2019s own daily perception. The weights of scientific debate comes out, albeit in a different way, even among the uncertain (9,1%): more than half remains silent believing scientists are in disagreement among themselves.<\/p>\n

Remains rather weak the influence of environmental groups: only 13% (a fixed rate) attribute those groups a significant role in their perception on climate change. A judgment that becomes markedly negative among the \u2018sceptics\u2019: almost one in two believes that \u201cthe environmentalists exaggerate always\u201d.<\/p>\n

However, the attention towards the issue keeps high: 63% consider themselves to be informed on climate change.<\/p>\n
