The 2015 Who Cares about the Environment? report measures environmental knowledge, attitudes and behaviours in the NSW population, and provides an indication of how these have changed over time.

In 2015, the research comprised quantitative and qualitative components. The quantitative component involved a landline and mobile telephone survey of 2000 people in New South Wales, aged 15 years and over. It was done from late August to early October 2015. The qualitative component involved eight focus groups in Sydney and regional New South Wales in late November and early December 2015. This document reports the full set of results from the survey, with comparisons to previous surveys where possible.
