President Biden's goal to conserve 30% of our lands and oceans by 2030 is barely known by Americans. Just 16% of voters say they know what 30 by 30 is, and only 39% of those (6% of all voters) can give a correct description of the plan in response to an open-ended question.

Here's some of those responses:

"30 by 30 aims to protect 30% of Earth's land and oceans by 2030."

'"30 by 30" refers to a global conservation target to protect 30% of the Earth's land and oceans by 2030 to combat biodiversity loss and mitigate climate change.'

"By 2030, protect 30% of our water and land resources."

"HOAX HOAX HOAX"

"Liberal Socialists want 30 percent of all American land to be owned by the government by 2030"

"30 by 30 is a shared roadmap to a nature-positive future."

A Napolitan News survey found that among those who say they know what 30 by 30 is, 73% have favorable opinions. This appears to be a project known only to its supporters.

This is another example of a term and plan that the vast majority of Americans know nothing about. See more about the language barrier between everyday Americans and political elites below.
