Increased heatwaves and floods driving increased climate concern across CQ
Locals blame energy company profiteering for high bills
Clear majorities in both Gladstone and Central Queensland support the shift to clean energy, though most don't realise they're in the majority
Farmers for Climate Action has released polling of residents across the Gladstone and Central Queensland region, as it aims to have the voices of regional communities heard.
Some 357 residents were polled - 204 in Gladstone and 153 across Central Queensland excluding Gladstone, so that attitude differences between Gladstone and the rest of Central Queensland could be recorded. The polling was part of a broader poll of 1,965 residents across key renewable energy zones, and was completed on March 20 . The research firm, 89 Degrees East, is a member of The Research Society of Australia.
