@balper What's a good email address for you? I have a question related to Pew's research on religion for an investigative piece I'm working on (I'm a journalist.) Feel free to DM me!

Highly religious Americans overwhelmingly say God gave humans a duty to protect and care for the Earth, but far fewer see climate change as a serious problem pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Among U.S. adults who regularly attend religious services, fewer say their congregation has a group dedicated to helping clean up public places or protecting the environment than other ways of helping the community pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Nearly half of Americans say that God gave humans duty to care for the Earth AND the right to use it pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

U.S. adults who are more open to changing their lifestyle for future generations’ sake are more likely than others to say that climate change is a serious problem pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Our new survey asked people who say climate change is not too serious/not a problem at all a few follow-up questions designed to learn more about their views. Many people in this category say that “there are much bigger problems in the world today” pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Climate change does not seem to be a major area of focus in U.S. congregations. Among U.S. adults who attend religious services at least once/twice a month, 8% say they hear a great deal/quite a bit about climate change in sermons pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Who is both highly religious and concerned about climate change? pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

About three-quarters of religiously affiliated Americans say the Earth is sacred; 67% say their faith’s holy scriptures contain lessons about the environment pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Within each of the major Christian traditions, as well as among Americans who do not identify with a religion, Republicans are consistently much less likely than Democrats in the same religious group to say the Earth’s warming is mostly caused by humans pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

Highly religious Americans are less concerned about climate change, less convinced human activity is causing warmer temperatures pewrsr.ch/3V0tka9

New: How Religion Intersects With Americans’ Views on the Environment pewrsr.ch/3OeDH7u

@phildrysdale Just email info@pewresearch.org with the request and we'll get back to you

@balper I'm looking through this study you authored pewresearch.org/religion/2022/… I am really looking to get numbers across religious affiliations including non-favorable numbers. Most additional details I could find was the topline report. Is this something you can help me with?

A majority of White evangelicals say that society has gone too far in accepting transgender people pewrsr.ch/3OSLp6D

A majority of religiously unaffiliated Americans (58%) say a person’s gender can be different from their sex assigned at birth pewrsr.ch/3OSLp6D

Attitudes about transgender issues vary widely among Christians, religious ‘nones’ in U.S. pewrsr.ch/3OSLp6D

42% of Republicans believe that most people who say they have a religious objection to getting the COVID-19 vaccine sincerely believe getting the vaccine is against their religion; 55% say these individuals are using religion as an excuse to avoid it pewrsr.ch/3LpiViI

82% of White evangelical Protestants say employers with coronavirus vaccine requirements should allow those with religious objections to keep their jobs even if they refuse the vaccine. Religious nones are much more split pewrsr.ch/3LpiViI

One-in-five U.S. adults may still be substituting virtual religious service attendance for in-person attendance pewrsr.ch/3ulHpTa
