Does this sentence"People should be concerned about…" contain the passive voice?

In a recent ESL test, the question was whether the following sentence contained the passive voice: People should be concerned about how to find alternatives to fossil fuels.

The answer book says yes, and I see the logic to that when the definition of concern is to make some worried. However, can it also be argued that this sentence is active and concerned is an adjective?

Thanks in advance for any help.
