Just 8% think increasing fossil fuel production is the best way to increase energy security, according to a poll.

Meanwhile, just 8% think increasing fossil fuel production is the best way to increase energy security. This has prompted many researchers, campaigners and opposition MPs to question whether adding a significant amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere is worth any economic and security gains. Similarly, 53% chose renewables when it came to the best way to reduce energy bills, followed by 18% who chose more nuclear.
Among those aged 50-64, support for extraction increases to 39% and increases again up to 57% in the 65-plus age group.
