Only 21% to 44% of respondents considered environmental issues a significant concern in their country. Respondents from Brazil were the most worried about the environment, followed by those from Colombia and Mexico.

In Asia, concerns varied. Indonesia showed the highest concern for the environment, while China and India were moderately concerned. Pakistan ranked lower in comparison. Despite other pressing issues such as health, education, unemployment, social security, and poverty, environmental protection remained a notable concern. In China, it was the second biggest issue, and in India, the fourth.
