Sustainability Experts Survey on Climate Change


The international opinion research firm GlobeScan Incorporated, with the support of COM+ Alliance, announced today the release of its report Formative Research for the Climate Forum: A Survey of Sustainability Experts and in-depth Interviews with Climate Change Solution Providers.

The key findings include:

* Nearly one-half of experts surveyed believe that little or no consensus exists within influential circles on what are the ideal solutions to climate change.
* Experts are evenly divided on whether regulatory approaches, financial instruments or new science and technology represents the most effective general approach to climate change, but solution providers clearly anticipate a need for an integrated response to the challenge. Other findings indicate that experts believe that a clear regulatory framework from governments is required before other sectors can take decisive action.
