汽車是溫室氣體排放的最大元兇美國蓋洛普(Gallup)年度環境調查發現,絕大多數的美國人民支持政府應加強限制溫室氣體排放量的環境議案,並且應將更多的稅金用於發展可替代的燃料或能源。大多數的民眾,高達民調的86%,贊成政府應投入更多經費於發展可替代的汽車燃料來源。

蓋洛普民調6年前開始對此議題進行追蹤,當時美國民眾就已廣泛支持這些議案,而蓋洛普組織成員沙特(Lydia Saad)亦表示,「公眾對這些議案的支持在2006年雖有些微的下降,但在今年已大量回升,甚至對於在汽車廢氣排放量設立更高限制方面的支持率更達到一個新高點。」

Poll: Majority Would Restrict Greenhouse Gas Emissions
PRINCETON, New Jersey, April 5, 2007 (ENS)

Gallup's annual Environment survey finds the overwhelming majority of American adults polled support environmental proposals that would strengthen government restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions and spend more taxpayer money to develop alternative sources of fuel and energy. A large majority, 86 percent of those polled, favored spending government money to develop alternative sources of fuel for automobiles.

Americans have been widely supportive of these proposals since Gallup began tracking them six years ago. "Public support for these proposals dipped slightly in 2006 but bounced back this year, and grew to a new high in the case of setting higher restrictions on auto emissions," said Lydia Saad of the Gallup organization.
