Wealthy Canadians care about environment, but won’t give up SUVs: poll

TORONTO (CP) – A poll being released Thursday suggests wealthy, educated Canadians are worried about the threat of global warming – but not enough to give up their gas-guzzling SUVs.
The Canadian Press has learned an online poll of 3,500 people conducted by Angus Reid Strategies suggests one-third of Canadians think climate change is the most important issue facing humanity today. Pollster Angus Reid says the only time the environment was this important to the country was in the 1980s, when fears about acid rain and garbage gave rise to widespread blue-box programs.
