Abstract

Climate change significantly threatens global health. In Wales, rising temperatures are projected to exacerbate extreme weather, disproportionately impacting vulnerable populations. Despite efforts to mitigate climate change, understanding of public perceptions and behaviours remains limited. To address this, a national survey was conducted to assess population views on climate change, policy solutions, health implications and climate-friendly behaviours.
