This report summarises topline findings from a nationally representative survey conducted in
October 2019 with 1,401 British respondents to examine public perceptions of climate change,
its associated impacts, and to map public support for climate change adaptation and resilience
building strategies.
The survey results provide evidence for a shift in perceptions among the British public towards
greater concern and a general willingness to support steps to address the issue. By comparing the
current survey results to previous studies conducted in 2010, 2013 and 2016, this report illustrates
how public beliefs have altered over recent years
