Climate Barometer maintains the UK’s only matched record of public and parliamentary opinion on climate, tracked over time. The data is here to be used. Whether you need a number, a briefing, or help designing research that builds on what already exists, here is how to work with us.
We have tracked public and MP opinion across multiple waves since late 2022. If you need a specific finding, a trend line, a cross-tabulation, or want to know whether a question has already been asked, we can help. Some answers are in our published data. Others sit in the full dataset and we can look them up.
Tell us what you need, what it is for, and the timeframe. We will come back to you with what we have or point you to the right source if it sits elsewhere.
We run private briefings for organisations that want to understand what the opinion data means for their specific work. That could be a campaign team preparing messaging, a funder reviewing a portfolio, a policy team testing assumptions, or a comms lead who needs to know what the public actually thinks before going to press.
Briefings draw on our full dataset and the wider evidence landscape, not just the headline findings. We tailor the content to your context and leave time for the questions that matter to you.
Before you commission new research, it is worth checking what already exists. We hold a registry of every question we have asked across every wave, and we follow what other organisations are publishing. We can tell you whether your question has already been answered, how to build on existing data rather than starting from scratch, and how to design questions that will stay comparable over time.
One of the problems with climate opinion research is that questions are set by whoever pays for the poll. The organisations that most need the answers often have no route into the design.
We are building a more open approach to question design. We already run co-design sessions with partner organisations ahead of each wave, and we have experimented with open question submission. If you work in a sector where climate opinion matters to your decisions, and you have a question you think should be tracked, we want to hear it.
Climate opinion does not land the same way in every context. What matters for infrastructure planning is different from what matters for agricultural policy or climate adaptation. Our Insight Labs bring together organisations working in a specific area and help them interpret the data against their own priorities.
Insight Labs are available to organisations working on climate and nature. If there is a sector you think we should cover, let us know.
Our published findings are available to use with attribution. If you need something beyond what is on the website, such as specific crosstabs, a data extract for a report, or access to the underlying dataset for academic research, get in touch and we will work out the best route.
We are also developing tools that will make it easier for partner organisations to query our data directly. That work is ongoing and not yet public, but if self-service access to longitudinal climate opinion data is something your organisation would use, we would like to hear from you.
We are a source of UK climate opinion data and can provide comment, context, and data points on public and political attitudes to climate change. We respond quickly and can provide both headline findings and the longer story behind them.
We publish regular newsletters, tracker commentary, and an annual review called Signal in the Noise. We also run public webinars after each wave of results. All of it is free, and none of it requires you to be a partner or a funder.
Climate Barometer is funded through philanthropic grants. We are open to co-funding arrangements where multiple funders support the tracker collectively while we retain full editorial independence. If you are interested in supporting shared evidence infrastructure for the climate sector, we would welcome a conversation.
