Just 22% are in favour of green taxes - compared with 31% a decade ago
The recession is thought to be one of the primary reasons behind the growth in climate change scepticism - with people worried about making ends meet than protecting the environment.
The figures, published in the annual British Social Attitudes report, also suggested Britons are fed up of having green taxes slapped on their utilities bills.
While in 2000 31 per cent supported green levies, in the new study just 22 per cent said they are in favour.

A collection of ridiculous, over the top fear-mongering articles on global warming
