New research by Energy Systems Catapult has found that while 75% of people believe climate change is a serious threat, they are still unclear as to which activities in their lives emit carbon – with only 49% realising natural gas heating contributes to carbon emissions.
As part of the Innovating to Net Zero project that recently modelled 100s of potential pathways to achieve 2050 carbon targets – over 2,000 people were surveyed and focus groups conducted to understand public attitudes, including:
- Perceptions of climate change, its severity and what activity contributes to it
- Attitudes towards low carbon technologies and behaviours in heating, diet and transport
