Majority of Canadians blame climate change for extreme weather: Nanos
Canadians are twice as likely to attribute climate change as the cause of recent extreme weather events rather than natural variations of weather patterns, according to a new poll by Nanos Research for CTV News.
Of the respondents, 64 per cent believe that high-intensity storms and extreme weather events, such as wildfires and floods, are a result of a changing climate, while more than one in four believe extreme weather is a result of natural variations in the weather. Eight per cent of respondents were unsure, Nanos reports.
