Youth less engaged with climate
The Dutch know more and more about climate change, but are still less concerned about it. Especially among young people, the concerns are smaller, according to research by Ipsos I&O. In 2023, 77 percent of young people up to 24 were concerned, now that is 66 percent. They find climate an abstract concept with little tangible impact on their direct environment. They are therefore more concerned with their education or work and with developments in the US or Gaza. More than half of young people think that the government should do more to combat climate change. They often think that their own efforts are pointless, because many governments and companies do little.
