Results of survey

Here are results of our survey on ecoterrorism, so I introduce them briefly.

We got 52 answers from our friends and strangers.

 

About 70 % of them don’t know about ecoterrorism or never heard of it, and rest of them says that it sounds like scary or good for environment, and few people know what ecoterrorism really is. However, they know some of ecoterrorist organizations, and 50% of them know Sea Shepherd. Greenpeace is also well-known. Many people disagree with whaling, killing for furs and animal experiments because they think it’s impermissible to kill animals for humans and fashion, and threaten them with extinction. However, most of them say they will ignore it when they encounter those actions. This shows that people think they should protect environment in their mind, but they don’t translate their ideas into action.

 

It’s a matter of course that we think we should save environment and animals, but few people start action. The reason may be it’s troublesome, we don’t know what to do and so on. I think it’s much better to take action than just to think. In order to do so, we must research and know those problems first of all.
