Listening to young people: Mobility for future
The young participants were also asked about their attitudes to the products they bought when travelling. Again, they were able to select multiple options. Look- ing at the responses by language group, it emerged that the majority of respondents using the German-lan- guage questionnaire selected “vegan/vegetarian” as a criterion.
Among the group of participants using the Turkish or Chinese questionnaire, most stated that they only bought products that were climate-friendly (i.e., pro- duced without damaging the environment). Within the group using Chinese, Estonian, Finnish or French, a large number of respondents chose none of the available options.
