People will dutifully bemoan any sort of environmental problem, but a Harris Poll finds some problems are regarded as more problematic than others. Respondents were given a list of such problems and asked to rank them on a scale of 1 (low priority) to 10 (high priority). Water pollution was ranked as a 9 or 10 by 52 percent of respondents, and air pollution got such scores from 48 percent. Global warming, ozone depletion and depletion of forest lands each got those scores from 41 percent; “recycling more material” (which sounds more like a solution than a problem) rated a 9 or 10 from 39 percent of those polled.
