Abstract

This PECC Lab Research Brief examines public opinion on the Green Industrial Revolution. It uses a nationally representative survey experiment to estimate how the various components of the Green Industrial Revolution affect public support, and which policy proposals are most popular. Executive Summary: - The Prime Minister has recently unveiled a ten-point plan for a Green Industrial Revolution to meet net-zero emissions targets. - We conducted an original survey experiment to causally identify the public’s support for particular points of this plan and their overall level of support. - Public support is increased substantially by consumer grants for electric vehicles, funding of electric public transport, planting of trees, and wind power. - Investment in air and sea vehicles and nuclear power does not meaningfully increase the public’s support. - An ambitious version of the Green Industrial Revolution sees majority support amongst the public, while taking no action is widely opposed. - This ambitious version of the Green Industrial Revolution sees support across party lines, being similarly popular amongst Conservative and Labour supporters. https://www.pecclab.com/publication/public-support-for-green-industrial-revolution-pecc-lab-research-brief/
