Two out of five people claim they are doing something to tackle climate change, according to a survey for the Environment Agency.
An online Ipsos MORI poll ahead of World Environment Day on June 5, found that 41% of people said they had altered their behaviour in an effort to reduce their carbon footprint. Some 48% of older people aged 45-64 were doing something to tackle climate change, compared with only 34% of young people aged 15-34; 76% people living in the eastern region of England said they were tackling climate change compared with only 22% of people living in London.
