You just can’t ignore emerging markets if you’re an energy investor.

In addition to huge government investment in expanding electricity and automobile access in developing nations, consumers in those countries top global surveys in their desire to cultivate "green" consumption habits.

This year’s National Geographic/Globescan Greendex survey of 17,000 adults in 17 countries places India, Brazil, and China atop the list of countries with green-minded consumers.

Of course, the survey was conducted online, which may the results towards the educated and perhaps more consumption-conscious in those countries.

• Brazilians
• Chinese
• Argentineans
• South Koreans
• Mexicans
• Hungarians
• Russians
• Spanish
• Germans
• Swedes
• Australians
• French
• British
• Japanese
• Canadians
• Americans
