The Latest Insights On Emerging Issues
The COVID-19 pandemic has completely altered the national conversation, but how has this shift affected Canadians’ views on the environment? Are Canadians more interested in planning ahead for climate change after seeing what happens when preparations are not made? Do Canadians support the idea of a “green recovery”? Will the public be asking more from the government or business in regard to this preparation? All of these questions will be explored in the upcoming edition of our Environmental Barometer.

A Decision-Maker Must-Have
Insights form this study give organizations – including governments, and the private and non-profit sectors – the understanding they need to bring Canadians on board with the transition to a low-emission, clean growth and sustainable society by answering questions like:
- Where does the public stand now (their awareness, understanding, beliefs and assumptions) and who is our target audience?
- What are the barriers to change (concerns, risks, threats)?
- What are their expectations, what do they want to happen and who do they feel is responsible for bringing this about?
- How do we communicate with them, persuade and motivate?
