European Commission (2018): ‘Cooling-off effect’ causes public perception of novel environmental technology to improve over time (Science for Environmental Policy, 503).

The scientists analysed survey results from over 1 000 respondents in Germany, using solar radiation management (SRM), a controversial climate-engineering technique, as a test case.“
