The Philippines is uniquely vulnerable to climate change, ranked as one of the nations most affected by extreme weather events. Despite this, awareness and action towards the climate crisis are moving at a glacial pace, as reported by Epson in its 2022 Climate Reality Barometer. The global technology leader recently released its annual Global Climate Reality Barometer, which surveys a diverse group of people from different backgrounds to gain a deeper understanding of climate change perception.
In the Philippines, the survey was conducted online and distributed to over 1,000 Filipino consumers. Local findings presented how attitudes and awareness are changing as the climate crisis unfolds, but slowly and inconsistently. To better understand and address gaps in climate change perception and awareness, Epson outlines key findings and insights in the Philippines.
