Abstract
- The article presents the results of research on people's opinions about global warming and climate change, and how easily those opinions can be influenced. Some issues addressed by related previous studies are noted. Details of the research protocol, which involved 45 people, a questionnaire, and a video titled "The Great Global Warming Swindle," are provided. It was found that the video tended to significantly affect people's opinions on the question of whether global warming is caused by humans. It had less effect on beliefs about the existence of climate change.
