Cyprus ranks last in environmental sensitivity among young people

Italian youth are the most worried about climate change in the European Union, according to a new survey released Tuesday by the European Commission.

Forty-six percent of young Italians expressed concern over environmental issues, topping the bloc. Danish and French youth followed closely.

Cypriot youth ranked near the bottom.

Just 24% said they were concerned about climate change, placing Cyprus fourth from last among EU countries.

The survey was conducted last year by the Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment.
