Climate Change & the Environment Market Research

DJS Research has a wealth of experience conducting quantitative and qualitative projects exploring the topics of climate change, the environment, net zero targets and carbon reduction plans, wildlife and biodiversity, and nature connectedness. Our projects are wide ranging, with examples such as:

The Centre for Climate and Social Transformations (CAST – University of Cardiff): For four years, DJS Research managed an annual survey on behalf of CAST to explore climate change attitudes and behaviours of adults living in the UK, China, Brazil and Sweden. The survey was conducted among 1,000 people per country per year.

Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST): public perceptions of climate change and policy action

Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST): worry about climate change, COVID-19 and the cost of living

Woodland Trust: In 2021, DJS Research managed the Trust’s Public Attitudes and Supporter Survey, which included a nationally representative online survey of 5,000 adults across the UK. The survey explored people’s connection to nature, wildlife, biodiversity and the outdoors, as well as their attitudes towards pro-environmental behaviours and climate change. This piece of work followed on from an online survey conducted among 3,500 UK adults to identify ‘Green’ personas (segments) within their wider audience segmentation.
