Climate Change in the Irish Mind (Wave 1)

The ‘Climate Change in the Irish Mind’ project is a baseline study of the Irish people’s beliefs, attitudes, policy preferences and behaviours regarding climate change. This work was undertaken in 2021 by the EPA and the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication in support of the National Dialogue on Climate Action. The approach to the project is based on the established methodology of the "Climate Change in the American Mind” survey conducted by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication and the George Mason University Center for Climate Change Communication, which was tailored to meet Ireland’s particular socio-economic context.
