"A new poll from Gallup finds that nearly half of all Americans worry “a great deal” about the environment, and that concerns have risen since before former President Trump took office.
According to the poll, 44 percent of respondents said they worry a great deal about the environment, while 27 percent worry a fair amount and 28 percent worry a little or not at all.
Gallup said it is unclear whether the rising worries about the environment since Trump are directly related to his presidency. Trump has doubted the effects of climate change and his administration moved to roll back Obama-era plans to lower greenhouse gas emissions. Trump was also a proponent of the coal industry."
