Public Communications and Understanding Sources of Opposition to CCS

Short Description: Public Communications and Understanding Sources of Opposition to CCS

This project addresses the quality and availability of public communications materials on CCS and the possible sources of opposition to CCS. There are two main work packages:

  1. a compilation (into a searchable database) and assessment of public communications materials and
  2. a study of how grassroots and NGO opposition to unabated coal-fired electricity generation may affect support for CCS. The latter has involved a series of workshops at “climate camps” across Europe and at UK political party conferences

Amount Awarded: £ 139,220 (Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute/CSIRO)

Duration: May 2010-May 2011

EPRG Participants: David Reiner, Olaf Corry
