During the period from April 30 to May 07, 2020, 686 project partners participated. The survey results are comparable to the results of the representative survey conducted in parallel by the opinion research institute <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forsa.de\/\" target=\"_blank\">forsa Politik- und Sozialforschung<\/a> on the topic of &#8220;Sustainability in the Corona Crisis&#8221; (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dbu.de\/themen\/foerderinitiativen\/corona-nachhaltigkeit\/repraesentative-umfrage-dbu-umweltmonitor-corona-folgen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DBU Environmental Monitor &#8220;Corona Consequences&#8221;<\/a>). They highlight the high importance of the climate crisis, the energy transition and the digital transformation, also against the backdrop of the Corona crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The most important results at a glance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>84 percent of DBU project partners<\/strong> believe that the <strong>climate crisis<\/strong> will have a <strong>greater long-term impact on society and<\/strong> <strong>the<\/strong> <strong>economy<\/strong> <strong>than the Corona crisis<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>At <strong>96 percent<\/strong>, a majority of project partners favor greater <strong>inclusion of scientific opinion and analysis<\/strong> in future crises.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>70 percent of respondents think it is important or even very important that investment programs pay attention to protecting the environment and climate, reducing species extinction, promoting regional economies and social justice, and fostering innovation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The 97 percent approval rate for the <strong>inclusion of environmental and climate protection<\/strong> in economic stimulus packages and investment programs clearly stands out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Around 88 percent of respondents also think it is important to drive forward the <strong>expansion of renewable energies<\/strong> in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuel imports.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>82 percent of companies said they currently value <strong>digital structures and work opportunities<\/strong> more. The majority also increased their appreciation of regional supply chains and distribution options. Furthermore, the promotion of small and medium-sized enterprises and the promotion of innovation has a higher priority for companies than for other project partners.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Around 75 percent of respondents are in favor of greater use of the <strong>home office<\/strong> even after the crisis, although companies tend to be less convinced about the home office. At 89 percent, a large majority favor greater use of digital options, such as video conferencing, to avoid business travel in the future.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Around 93 percent of respondents generally find it important or very important to address the consequences of digitization for the environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can access the full survey results <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dbu.de\/media\/150520023050hvio.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.
