A new CBS News poll finds 62% of Americans think the environment will be worse for the next generation of Americans, up six points from a year ago.
“When asked to grade the U.S. on protecting the environment, few Americans give the U.S. high marks. Most give the country a ‘C’ at best, including 22% who give a failing grade of ‘F.’ Back in 2009, just 6% said the U.S. deserved an ‘F’ for the progress it had made in protecting the environment.”
