Three quarters of Czechs say global warming man made and bolder steps should be taken

Four out of five Czechs believe that global warming has taken place in the past years according to a survey by the STEM agency. Around 75 percent of those surveyed said this was caused by human behaviour but a quarter put this down to natural changes. Three quarters also believed that the Czech Republic should take bolder steps to curb greenhouse gas emissions even if this has an impact on the Czech economy. Talks between world leaders on a new global framework to curb greenhouse gases culminate in Copenhagen at the end of this week.
