Over 80% of the urban population in Romania consider that climate changes are a real threat, according to an opinion poll made by Ipsos, and ordered by Greenpeace Romania. 76% of Romanian respondents are worried by the effects of climate changes and the danger they represent for Romania. Only 34% of respondents consider that Romania is ready to adapt and prevent the effects of climate changes.   According to the analysis, 68% of Romanians connect the impact of human activity and of fossil fuel to accelerated climate changes. Although most Romanians still back gas extraction, their number dropped from 64% in 2024 to 57% in 2025, on the background of increased awareness of the impact on the environment. 44% of Romanians consider that gas extractions in the Black Sea have a negative impact on the environment, compared to 37% in 2024, indicating increased awareness of the impact of extractive projects on climate changes and nature.   The study shows that 89% of Romanians consider the Black Sea is a “national treasure”, while 88% want it to be protected for future generations. 83% of the people participating in the survey declared ready to get actively involved in the protection of the Black Sea. Of them, 70% declare ready to sign petitions, 64% to distribute messages online, 42% to participate in cleansing actions, 12% would donate money and 11% would participate in protests for this cause.   The study was made by Ipsos by means of Ipsos Digital platform, ordered by Greenpeace Romania, on a representative sample of 600 respondents in the urban area in Romania, between January 20-23, 2025. The sample is representative of the urban population 18-64 years old, with Internet access, being built on statistic data for gender, age, region and locality size. The selection of respondents was made by using sample methods to ensure the relevance of results for the urban population with Internet access.   The data were collected according to international research standards and the margin of error was +/- 4%.
