A questionnaire was used in personal interview during the months of January and February 2021 AD, and after collecting the data.
-        More than two-thirds of the respondents (69.5%) have an average level of knowledge of the concept of climate changes in general, and nearly two-thirds (65.3%) of the respondents (65.3%) have an average level of knowledge of the causes of changes, while nearly half of the respondents (46.3%) have a high knowledge of the manifestations of climate changes .

-        More than half of the respondents (51.9%) have low knowledge of extension activities to reduce the impact of climate change and benefit from them.
