Do you agree that the price of a plane ticket should reflect the environmental damage that flying causes, even if this makes air travel more expensive?
Until 2017, questions regarding transportation and climate change were asked as part of the British Social Attitudes (BSA) survey and included respondents from the whole of Great Britain. From 2019 onwards, questions were asked as part of the National Travel Attitudes Study (NTAS) for respondents from England. Figures from previous years were adjusted to reflect answers from English respondents.
