The study series “Environmental Consciousness in Germany” has been conducted every two years since 1996 on behalf of the Federal Ministry for the Environment and the Federal Environment Agency to investigate how environmental awareness and environmental behavior are developing among the population in Germany.

Description

The aim is to understand the existing patterns of thought and action in society and to anticipate the needs of different population groups.

The main survey 2020 was conducted by infas Institute for Applied Social Sciences from November 1 to December 8, 2020. In addition to updating the central time series questions of the study series on environmental awareness, it included an extensive block of questions on this year´s main topic of “Climate protection and socio-ecological transformation”. As part of the main survey, a total of 2,115 people in Germany aged 14 and over were interviewed online (CAWI = computer assisted web interview).

The people were recruited via the infas ad hoc panel. The panel participants were recruited using a random sample of landline and mobile phone numbers (dual frame). Due to the large scope of the survey, three additional telephone surveys on specific topics were conducted in addition to the main survey.

These covered the topics of “Economic structural change”, “Heating with wood” and “Climate adaptation”. For each of the additional surveys, 1,000 people in Germany aged 18 and over were interviewed by telephone. The surveys each comprised around ten questions.

The surveys took place in November 2020 (topic of economic structural change), in April 2021 (topic of heating with wood) and in September 2021 (topic of climate adaptation), each as part of a representative omnibus survey. The framework of this multi-topic survey, which is conducted monthly by infas on the basis of a dual-frame sample in the ADM master sample, is a compact, purely social and political science-oriented questionnaire.

The relevant topics were placed in a suitable position.
