The notion of a broad green backlash is set to dominate the European election campaign. Based on new survey data from more than 15,000 respondents in Germany, France and Poland, a study of the Jacques Delors Centre in Berlin shows that it is largely overblown. A majority of voters still wish for a more ambitious climate policy and would support a raft of concrete measures to bring down emissions. As we delve into these findings, pivotal questions arise: What differences exist in attitudes towards the green transition among the three countries? How do political ideologies within each country shape perspectives on climate action? And what are the implications for the upcoming European election campaigns?
To explore these questions, we are pleased to welcome Jannik Jansen, Policy Fellow at the Jacques Delors Centre in Berlin and co-author of the study “Debunking the Backlash - Uncovering European Voters' Climate Preferences”. The survey data is accessible through an interactive dashboard for further exploration.
