Clearly, voters are recognizing innovation as more than just behind-the-scenes R&amp;D, but an opportunity to boost the economy and public health.<\/li>\n<li>When it comes to investing in climate innovation, <strong>79% of voters think it\u2019s important that the U.S. relies on American-made materials and manufacturing processes,<\/strong> including strong majorities in every region of the U.S. The way to achieve these outcomes is to boost climate technology supply chains and manufacturing in the U.S., like how Ford is <a href=\"https:\/\/media.ford.com\/content\/fordmedia\/fna\/us\/en\/news\/2021\/09\/27\/ford-to-lead-americas-shift-to-electric-vehicles.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">investing in<\/a> job-creating, electric vehicle plants and battery plants in Kentucky and Tennessee.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A strong majority of voters agree that both businesses and government have important roles to play in supporting climate innovation. <\/strong>Businesses have a key role to play alongside the federal government in deploying capital, increasing market demand for innovation, and scaling climate solutions across industries and supply chains. Companies can also support policy progress by using the most powerful tool they have to fight climate change: <a href=\"https:\/\/business.edf.org\/climate-authenticity-meter\/\">their political influence<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Voters support investment throughout the pipeline of the technology innovation process. <\/strong>Specifically, a majority agree it\u2019s important for the U.S. to invest in R&amp;D of new climate technologies (76%) <em>as well as<\/em> invest in testing and scaling them up (73%).
