Q13Q14Q15Question statementsNext you are presented with statements about the potentialconsequences of CO 2 capture and storage. For each statement,please indicate how likely you think it is that this will be aconsequence of CO 2 capture and storage.Tick the most appropriate number on the scale from 1–5. If you do notknow the answer you can choose option 3.The stored CO 2 will move upwards into the atmosphere or the seabed.CO 2 stored underground will affect the soil for plants and crops in thearea.In the case of CO 2 leakage from onshore storage, it will affect thehuman health.In the case of CO 2 leakage from offshore storage, it will affect the oceanecosystem.CO 2 stored onshore will eventually flow into the sea.Earthquakes can cause CO 2 to leak out of the storage.Next you are presented with statements about the potentialconsequences of CO 2 capture and storage which may be true ormay be false. For each statement, please indicate how sure you arethat this can be a consequence of CO 2 capture and storage.Tick the most appropriate number on the scale from 1–5. If you do notknow the answer you can choose option 3.In the long run stored CO 2 can change into harmful materials throughchemical reactions.The stored CO 2 is expandable and can cause cracks in the caprock ofthe storage.The stored CO 2 can catch on fire.Even if the CO 2 remains in the storage it can still influence the surfaceecosystem.The CO 2 is stored in a vacant underground chamber, resembling acave.The stored CO 2 can emit hazardous radiation.Next we repeat the statements about CO 2 capture and storage.Please indicate the extent to which you disagree or agree witheach statement.Tick the most appropriate number on the scale from 1-5. If you do notknow the answer you can choose option 3.Some of the stored CO 2 can change into a solid substance.CO 2 leakage from underground storage can be measured andmonitored properly by available technology.The captured CO 2 should be broken down instead of being storedunderground.CO 2 capture and storage poses too many risks for human health.CO 2 capture and storage should only be implemented when there is a100% guarantee that it is safe.CO 2 capture and storage is essential to mitigate climate change.Experts involved in CO 2 capture and storage implementation knowenough about CO 2 storage to safely implement this technology.I am concerned about what would happen if there were accidents inCO 2 capture and storage.Variable NamesMoveAtmosphereSoilLeakOnLeakOffFlowIntoSeaEarthquakeLeakChemicalReactCaprockFireEcosystemVacantRadiationSolidMeasureMonitorBreakDownManyRiskGuranteeMitigateCCKnowEnoughWhatHappen62 | Understanding how individuals perceive carbon dioxide
