Is the right message out there? Surveys Reveal Public Support for Renewable Energy December 2001 Almost all of the interviewees had heard of climate change and three quarters of them, 74%, were concerned about its effects. Over half the public interviewed (55%) had heard the term ‘renewable energy’, and there was high approval for solar, wave/tidal, and hydro-electric power. Interestingly, only 3% of the interviewees were opposed to building onshore wind farms in Britain.

Probably not Surveys Reveal Public Support for Renewable Energy December 2001 In your opinion which, if any, of these sorts of electricity power station should be built in Britain during the next 10 years? Vacuum4% had heard of 2% should be built in Britain 2% should not be built in Britain 11% don’t want within 3 miles of home

People want to do more Climate change flood risk finally hits home New Climate Change Survey shows public link floods and storms to global warning October per cent of people think they’re buying energy from a renewable source, but only 17,000 people have made the switch to a green tariff - less than one per cent of all UK households. But are they?

People want to know how to do more NOP research demonstrates that the public wants more information … February % say they want more information about why they should save energy 77% say they want information on how to save energy

How can we help the public help us? Spread the message
