The climate measures currently in place are unlikely to meet Paris Climate Agreement targets. Whether further political measures can move us closer to the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees and combating climate change depends heavily on public opinion and political support. Researchers at ETH Zurich led by Keith Smith, Senior Researcher in Professor Thomas Bernauer’s research group, conducted a large-scale survey across 13 EU countries to find out which measures are publicly and politically acceptable, and why. Their findings are published in Nature Climate Change.
