2. "Towards responsible innovation and societal engagement with carbon dioxide removal" draws on evidence from CO2RE research to examine how GGR can be better understood, communicated, appraised and governed in the UK. Check it out here: lnkd.in/eXtUY4s5

Studies on public perceptions also reveal the qualitative reasonings behind why people perceive CDR methods in the UK the way that they do. This review finds 14 distinct factors driving public attitudes towards CDR in the UK, and 12 distinct conditions for deployment of CDR in the UK

Certain regions could be more or less likely to support or oppose certain CDR deployments. It would be important to match up any physical requirements for siting CDR methods with appropriate social contexts

Earlier studies of UK public perception examined broader categories including “geoengineering” and “carbon dioxide removal” before focussing on more specific methods. DACCS, BECCS and enhanced rock weathering together dominate attention in studies of UK public perception

Public perceptions of CDR have been studied in all regions of the UK to some extent, but some more than others. These studies have employed a range of methods including interviews, surveys, survey experiments, deliberative workshops, experimental workshops and deliberative mapping

I led Chapter 6 on Perceptions and Communication, in which we break down the relevance of public perceptions in the UK, public opinion on CDR in the UK, and factors driving attitudes and conditions for deployment in the UK

It can't? Not without recognising the feedback loop between what people can say and the social context in which they reside
