- "When it comes to the drivers of belief or acceptance of scientific findings, in particular, climate change, then what we find is that one of the most important factors is a person’s worldview or you can call it a political ideology, their belief in things such as the free market. It turns out, in particular in the case of climate change, that people who are very enthusiastic about free markets and who think that government should not interfere with free markets, that they tend to reject the findings from climate change, climate science based on that ideology. It’s a very strong effect. It’s a huge effect. In some of my data, it explains two-thirds of the variance. Now what that means is that if I know somebody’s belief about the free markets, I can reduce my uncertainty about what their climate change attitude is by two-thirds. There’s a huge correlation there between those two variables and that is one of the main drivers."
