Saving the Environment

Analyze the Survey Results

How do kids across the country feel about the environment? An overwhelming majority of kids who answered our poll said they don't think that the government is doing enough to protect it. But how did kids in various parts of the country vote? And what did kids think was the most important thing they could do to help save the environment? Check out the survey results to find out!

We asked you to tell us

  • if the government is doing enough to protect the environment.
  • what the biggest environmental challenge for the twenty-first century will be.
  • and what the most important thing kids can do to protect the environment is.
