23% Will Do Something Special To Celebrate Earth Day
Today marks the 43rd annual Earth Day, and while most Americans considers the day important, they still aren’t convinced it helps raise environmental awareness.
Fifty-eight percent (58%) of American Adults believe Earth Day, celebrated since 1970, is at least somewhat important. Thirty-nine percent (39%) view it as unimportant. These findings include 32% who consider Earth Day Very Important and 11% who say it’s Not At All Important. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
