\"article<\/p>\n

Over the last few months, a number of British commentators have been trumpeting an increase in scepticism about climate change.<\/p>\n

The cold weather (often claimed – incorrectly – to be a hemisphere-wide phenomenon), the University of East Anglia e-mail hack, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s lack of rigour over projections of Himalayan glacier melt, the weak outcome from the Copenhagen summit: all these and more have been proclaimed as factors that are said to be deflecting the public away from climate concern<\/p>\n

Now comes evidence from an opinion poll<\/a> – commissioned by the BBC, carried out by Populus – indicating that in Britain at least, tales of increasing scepticism may be true.<\/p>\n

The headline stats are that between November last year and the beginning of February this year, there has been a net 9% downwards swing in the proportion of Britons believing that “the Earth’s climate is changing and global warming is taking place”.<\/p>\n
