Energy & Environment, 1993, vol. 4, issue 2, 140-154

Abstract: As a part of an international study cordinated by Dr. Willett Kempton and myself, this paper discusses the results of a survey of the Austrian public's attitudes to, and pereptions of, global climate change. Issues that emerged as important in the study are: 1) people's inability to disassociate the greenhouse effect from the ozone hole, 2) the belief that climate change is already occurring, 3) the potential role of various methods available to combat global climate change, and 4) the lay public's environmental values. These issues are identified from twenty person to person interviews which took place in Vienna during June and July of 1991 2 .
