2007年公眾對於環境的態度與行為調查是英國環境、糧食與鄉村事務部(Defra)一系列調查中的第6項,而第1次調查從1986年開始。而今年的調查,受訪者3600人,取樣來自英國各地,建立了一個更具代表性的全圖,可以看出英國人民在面對與環境相關的議題時,他們的想法與行為。

大多數的受訪者都顯示出他們已經察覺並且關心全球環境破壞的問題,同時相信這些問題都是人類行為所造成的。

The main motivation for an environmentally friendly lifestyle is guilt about harming the environment, respondents admitted.

The 2007 Survey of Public Attitudes and Behavior toward the Environment is the sixth in a series of surveys that the British Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and its predecessors have conducted since 1986.

The 2007 survey, which polled 3,600 people across England, establishes a representative picture of what people in England think and how they behave across a range of issues relevant to the environment.

The majority of respondents appear to be both aware of and concerned about the problems besetting the global environment, and to believe that human behavior has brought these about.
