"Oito em cada dez pessoas (85%) já notam interferências das mudanças climáticas em seu cotidiano, sendo que quase metade (46%) julga esse impacto intenso. O dado foi obtido por equipes do Aurora Lab e da More in Common, em pesquisa sobre a transição de energias sujas para limpas"
"As entrevistas realizadas para a análise contaram com a participação de pessoas com 16 anos de idade ou mais, de nove capitais: Belém, Brasília, Fortaleza, Natal, Porto Alegre, Recife, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador e São Paulo. O questionário foi aplicado entre maio e setembro de 2025."
"This is also very worrying data, because it removes or doesn't place responsibility on employers. We're going to have more and more extreme climate events and they have a very important role in ensuring worker protection," said Gabriela Vuolo, Aurora Lab's executive director, according to Agência Brasil. ✓

Cada vez mais a gente vai ter eventos climáticos extremos e eles têm um papel muito importante em garantir a proteção dos trabalhadores no processo de transição também", complementa a diretora-executiva do Aurora Lab, Gabriela Vuolo."
