Some interesting insights into why people do or don't support climate change initiatives.
For example: "We found that people consistently underestimate how much others support climate action. This phenomenon is known as 'pluralistic ignorance'. On average, respondents underestimated support by 18%, and overestimated opposition by 16%. This creates a kind of shared illusion that climate policies are less popular than they actually are."

@flug why should i care what other people do or don't support? this honestly reads like a veiled "we need to do ruin the social lives of people who criticize our plans".
