3.2.1. "In 2007, v – the national young volunteers service – undertook research investigating the passions of young people, and examining their main concerns regarding global and local issues. They found that 75% of the young people surveyed were concerned about climate change, and 60% about their local environment. However, many young people were also not sure how to help address these issues or believed they had nothing to offer."
