This global warming survey template asks adults what they know about the topic, what concerns them, and what they want explained. Use the answers to plan an educational discussion around real questions from the audience.

People can have different levels of familiarity, concern, and interest in a discussion. This SurveyLegend questionnaire keeps those dimensions separate instead of assuming that one answer explains a person’s whole perspective.

When to use this survey

Share it before an educational session or community conversation. State the purpose and intended audience without asking respondents to endorse a position. If you are also deciding the event’s format, use event planning surveys for practical arrangements rather than adding unrelated logistics to this questionnaire.

7 questions for your global warming survey

This survey asks about your familiarity with global warming and the information you would find useful in a discussion. It is not a test. All questions are optional, and you may choose not sure or prefer not to say where offered.

Customize your global warming survey

Explain whether the event is educational, consultative or connected to a specific decision. Keep this version focused on information needs; a policy consultation requires clearly described proposals and its own process. Do not label respondents according to assumed beliefs or treat familiarity as demonstrated scientific knowledge.

Printable global warming survey

Offer a blank copy before a community session for people who prefer paper. Provide a private return option so respondents do not have to state their concerns in front of others. Use the same wording across response modes.

How to use the answers

Review concern, familiarity and requested topics separately. A person who is highly concerned may still want basic explanations, while a familiar participant may have a specific technical question. Organize open-ended data by the information requested. Use appropriate scientific sources when preparing answers; public opinion does not establish scientific facts.

Yale’s Global Warming’s Six Americas research examines dimensions including “beliefs, attitudes, risk perceptions, motivations”. The climate audience research supports considering more than a single opinion when learning about an audience. This short, original questionnaire is not the Six Americas instrument, does not assign its audience categories and should not be compared with its national estimates.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a climate-science quiz?

No. It asks about familiarity, concern and information needs. It does not grade knowledge or determine scientific accuracy by vote.

Can it classify the Six Americas audiences?

No. This is an original discussion-planning questionnaire, not the research project’s classification instrument.

Can the answers represent the whole community?

Only make claims supported by your sampling and recruitment. An open invitation or event audience should not automatically be described as representative.
