Drop in drivers concerned about the environment25 Feb 2011by Hugh Bryant In the government's annual report, realesed last month, on public attitudes towards climate change and the impact of transport, they revealed that the levels of belief in, and concern about, climate change have been falling. Since they started looking at this in 2006, the proportion of adults who were at least ‘fairly concerned’ about climate change has dropped from 81% (2006) to 70% (2010). This finding is consistent with the misguided and irresponsible climate change denial lobby that would rather gamble with the future viaiblity of the planet than accept the uncomfortable truth of what a now sizeable body of scientific data is telling us. Nonethess, it is perhaps reassuring that over two-thirds of us are worried about environmental issues. Those that were more concerned about climate change were more likely to be willing to reduce their car use. Among those that were ‘very concerned’, 64% were willing to reduce their car use, falling to 24% among those who had little or no concern. Presumably the latter group were mainly motivated to drive less as a consequence of the escalating cost of fuel. Given the hugely increased costs of motoring, including constant car insurance price hikes, it pays to shop around. We provide the best resources with which to do this below. |
