Abstract
I was reading a report from The Royal Society for the Arts
concerning climate change. Or rather… it was about
attitudes to climate change. Polls taken for the RSA and
published in the report show that 80% of Britons are
worried about climate change but only 14% say they have
altered their behaviour accordingly. Rowson (the author)
points out that that leaves 66% (two thirds of us) as
Climate Ignorers – a condition of polite apathy. (Rowson J.
2013. RSA).
