SUMMARY:'Signal in the Noise' - Six climate opinion trends from 2025 & what’s next
DESCRIPTION:Signal in the Noise is Climate Barometer’s annual publication that monitors and makes sense of patterns and trends in opinion on climate change. \nThis year’s Signal in the Noise is both a look back at the six trends from 2025 that defined the year in public opinion on climate change\, and a look forward to the topics\, risks and opportunities that will shape public engagement in 2026. \nJoin the Climate Barometer team\, digital researcher Ed Harrison (University of Bath and Horizon Intelligence)\, Rachael Orr (Climate Outreach) and Claire Brown (Larger US) in a conversation that will cover: \n\nHas public opinion fractured and polarised like the political consensus\, or is there a different story to tell\, to drive public engagement in 2026?\nWhy do large ‘perception gaps’ persist between MPs’ estimates of public support for renewables and what people actually think – and what work is needed to close them?\nWhere do the risks – and opportunities – lie in engaging Reform supporters (and Reform-curious voters) in the year ahead?\nAs ‘green populism’ has its moment\, how are voters responding to this kind of messaging?\nAnd with the drive for net zero becoming ever more local\, what new insights do campaigners need to stay ahead?\n\nDrawing on their tracker of public and MP opinion\, a new social listening analysis by Ed Harrison\, and the public engagement expertise of the guest speakers Rachael Orr and Claire Brown\, this will be an opportunity to build on the opinion signals of 2025 to guide the engagement strategies of 2026. \nReserve your spot to attend!
