"But, over all, the trends were clear. The more people believed in
free-market ideology, the less they believed in climate science; the more
they accepted science in general, the more they accepted the conclusions of
climate science; and the more likely they were to be conspiracy theorists,
the less likely they were to believe in climate science.

what they want to believe, and to disbelieve new information that might
challenge them. "
