The Islamic State terrorist group and climate change are viewed as the two greatest global threats in 2017, according to a survey from Pew Research published Tuesday.
Furthermore, more countries view the U.S. as a threat than when Pew last asked the question in 2013. Global perception of the U.S. and the American president has plummeted since President Donald Trump took office in January.
Respondents from all but one of the countries – Turkey – say either climate change or ISIS are one of the two biggest threats facing their nations today, according to the survey of 38 countries and nearly 42,000 respondents conducted between February and May 2017.
Global fears are largely concentrated by region and political ideology, though: Europeans and conservatives are more likely to name ISIS or refugees as the biggest threats to their countries, while Latin Americans, Africans and liberals are more concerned about climate change.
In the United States, for example, 60 percent of conservatives say refugees are a major threat, compared with 14 percent of liberals. And 86 percent of liberals and 31 percent of conservatives are very concerned about climate change.
