For the purpose of this survey, citizens were polled in the first half of April this year on a sample of 84,572 respondents in 67 countries on six continents. The survey was conducted in English via a web form (web survey). All respondents were asked seven different questions. All questions were open-ended, that is, the respondents were not offered answers in advance, but were able to state for each question whatever they thought was the most appropriate answer.
Although this poll was later named officially “ICERTIAS What Are the Planet’s Thoughts? – Covid-19 – April – 2020 Survey”, respondents were neither visually nor in terms of content prompted – either directly or indirectly – to believe that this survey had anything to do with the Covid-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic.
