It was foundthat ‘DoForGW’ and ‘MoreTax’ correlated with ‘no opinion change’ negatively in the value andbelief category. Conflating the effects of CO 2 with those of CO, and misperceptions of CCS suchas ‘FlowIntoSea’ and ‘Vacant’, were also correlated with ‘no opinion change’ negatively. Further,‘no opinion change’ participants tended to have knowledge of the uses of CO 2 (i.e. ‘FireExtinguisher’), less trust in scientists as a source of information (‘Scientist’), and were moreinvolved with CO 2 related activities (‘Activity’).94 | Understanding how individuals perceive carbon dioxide
