* 3. Please read the following statements (Defra 2008) and select the one which most accurately reflects your own view:

I do a couple of things to help the environment. I’d like to do more, well, as long as I saw others were.

I think I do more than a lot of people. Still, going away is important, I’d find that hard to give up... carbon offsetting would make me feel better.

I think it’s important that I do as much as I can to limit my impact on the environment.

I don’t know much about climate change. I can’t afford a car so I use public transport… I’d like a car though.

‘Waste not, want not’ that’s important, you should live life thinking about what you are doing and using.

Maybe there’ll be an environmental disaster, maybe not. It’s not something that worries or affects me. What I do has very little impact on the planet.

I think climate change is a big problem for us. I know I don’t think much about how much water or electricity I use, and I forget to turn things off..I’d like to do a bit more.
