(ANSA) - ROME, MARCH 06 - Among the major European economies, Italy is in the lead for the number of digitally sustainable, with 37% of young people using digital tools and, at the same time, adopting attitudes and behaviors oriented towards sustainability.
This is what emerges from the "Digital Sustainability Index Young" report, presented by the Digital Sustainability Foundation and EY Foundation Onlus.
Followed by Spain (34%), Poland (26%), Germany (18%) and France (14%).
Leading the way are Italian women, who with 29% of digital sustainability register a higher figure than both fellow men and the female gender of the other countries analysed.
The research, which involved 800 young people aged between 16 and 24, highlights how young people consider the environment a central theme:
71% of Italians indicate that climate change is one of the main problems that must be dealt with immediately.
Data in line with those of Spain (69%) and France (62%), which however decreases in Poland (56%) and Germany (42%).
Among the priorities to be addressed, 67% of Italians also include pollution and this is the opinion of 63% of Spaniards, 58% of French, 54% of Poles and 47% of young Germans.
However, a problem related to awareness emerges: 27% of young Italians declare that they know little or nothing about the concept of sustainability, compared to 32% in Germany or 62% recorded in France.
