Dear all,
I am thrilled to share with you two flagship studies from our ERC grant GENIE, led by my talented colleague Dr. Chad Baum. The first presents original survey data from 30 countries with more than 30,000 respondents and was published a few days ago in Nature Communications. Here you can see:

This follows another paper of Chad’s published in Environmental Politics last month presenting an information-framing analysis of public perceptions in Mexico, the United Kingdom and United States:

Both papers address some very hefty research gaps.
Warmly,
Benjamin
