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.
