Geography Dissertation Questionnaire

Liverpool Population Perception on Climate Change

This is a questionnaire designed for my Geography BSc dissertation at the University of Liverpool, which aims at addressing Liverpool’s populations perception of climate change while also attempting to align thus perceptions with different demographical characteristics. Your contribution to this questionnaire will greatly help my project by representing your voice and opinion on such a divided topic of today.

Complete honesty on the issue (climate change) is key for this project to be possible, and only helps reach and understand more varied ideas and opinions.
