According to a survey from IPSOS conducted in late 2019, around 69 percent of consumers worldwide have changed the products and services they use due to concern about climate change. Generally, consumers in developing economies were more willing to change their consumption habits, including 88 percent of Indians and 85 percent of Chinese surveyed. Conversely, respondents from many major developed economies fell below the global average, notably Germany with 60 percent, the United States with 56 percent, and Japan with only 31 percent.
