The average American experiences 48 days of annual “eco guilt” — the feeling that they could be doing more to help the environment.
Conducted by Talker Research on behalf of HP for its All-In Plan, a new survey of 2,000 Americans pinpointed the specific number of days per month that people feel strong guilt around their environmental habits and found this strikes 3.8 times per month on average — nearly 50 times per year.
From wasting food (31%) to tossing items that could have been recycled (29%) to leaving the TV on when not watching (27%), many people say they regularly feel they could improve their environmental habits.
As Earth Day approaches on April 22, the study shows that while people are trying, half (50%) admit they’re more likely to do something that isn’t environmentally friendly when they’re rushed or stressed.
