MORE than eight in 10 people say they are concerned about climate change, a new poll revealed today after last month's record-breaking heatwave sparked fresh fears over global warming.
The survey, conducted by Ipsos in the days immediately after temperatures soared to a new UK high of 40.3C on July 19, showed 84 percent are worried about climate change, matching the highest levels ever recorded by the polling firm.
More than half said they were "very concerned" while 72 percent of those asked said they believed Britain is already feeling the effects of climate change. The findings come after provisional statistics released by the Met Office yesterday showed that July was the driest for England since 1935 and the driest on record for East Anglia, the South-East, and the Southern England.
