In new poll, conducted by YouGov for Greenpeace, more that half of respondents said their homes needed retrofit upgrades to cope with future heatwaves, but 78% said they would struggle to afford them. Almost half of people said they would support a levy on highly polluting companies to fund these essential upgrades, by far the most popular option. The next most popular was reducing public spending in other areas. Only 5% supported raising personal taxes to fix the UK’s inadequate infrastructure.
