I have just come across HSBC’s Climate Confidence Index, a survey which questioned some 9,000 people from around the world. The survey looked at people’s attitudes towards the issue of climate change and it will be repeated annually until 2011. It will be interesting to see how views, attitudes and opinions change over the coming years.
There are some revealing views gathered from the survey. ‘Climate change and how we respond to it are among the biggest issues I worry about today’ amongst people from the UK only 22% respondents thought it was the ‘amonst the biggest issues they worry about today’, compared to 58% in Brazil and 60% in India. This level of concern from UK respondents goes some way in explaining the results in my poll below!
