The People and Nature Survey for England gathers evidence and trend data through an online survey relating to people’s enjoyment, access, understanding of and attitudes to the natural environment, and it’s contributions to wellbeing.
About the dataset
The People and Nature Survey builds on the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment (MENE) survey which ran from 2009 to 2019. The data enables users to:
- Understand how people use, enjoy and are motivated to protect the natural environment.
- Monitor changes in use of the natural environment over time, at a range of different spatial scales and for key groups within the population.
- Understand how being in the natural environment can have an effect on wellbeing.
- Understand environmental attitudes and the actions people take at home, in the garden and in the wider community to protect the environment.
