Public more environmentally progressive than the Government - Baker
A Guardian/ICM poll has revealed that 63% of the population approve of new green taxes to discourage environmentally damaging behaviour. Commenting on the Poll, Liberal Democrat Shadow Environment Secretary, Norman Baker MP, said "I am delighted to see that so many people are aware that we need more green taxation in order to protect our environment for the future. It is a pity that the government is not as progressive in its thinking as the public."
