Public awareness of climate risks and opportunities in Scotland
2022
Millar, Catriona | Mulholland, Ciaran | Corner, Adam
This study explores the Scottish public’s understanding of current and future risks and opportunities posed by a changing climate. Having a better understanding of the public’s awareness of the risks of climate change will help provide a platform for more effective engagement at the community and society level. Echoing recent trends, concern about climate change in Scotland was high and increasing, and a majority felt that Scotland was already feeling the effects of climate change. When asked what the specific impacts on Scotland were likely to be, respondents tended to focus on weather-related impacts, and extreme weather was generally seen as becoming more common in Scotland. Weather-related events were, however, generally seen as more of a serious problem for Scotland overall than for respondents’ local areas.
