Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders in the United States are slightly more likely than the overall adult population to believe in human-caused climate change. That’s according to a recent poll from AAPI Data and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. It finds that 84% of AAPI adults agree climate change exists. In comparison, 74% of all U.S. adults hold the same sentiment. Furthermore, three-quarters of AAPI adults who accept climate change is real attribute it to human activity. More AAPI Republicans than Republicans overall recognize climate change.
