A poll has found a desire for a referendum on net zero is popular among the public, with one political party calling for carbon policies to be taken to the ballet box amid “growing dissatisfaction” with current and future policies.

According to a commissioned YouGov poll, excluding “don’t knows,” 62 percent want a referendum on UK’s net zero carbon policy as compared with 58 percent asked the same question last year before COP26.
