Acknowledgments

The SCIP analytical work would not have been possible without the assistance of Minako Edgar, Raphael Nishimura, and Ruthie Dingeldein. Ms. Edgar assumed responsibility for the GIS mapping and overall data management. Mr. Nishimura advised on sample management and weighting. Ms. Dingeldein produced the appendix tables and helped organize report materials.

Dr. Anthony Leiserowitz from the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication was also helpful in providing data from national surveys on attitudes toward climate change for the U.S. population.

We also acknowledge the survey management provided by Ms. Maureen O'Brien from Survey Research Operations (SRO) of ISR’s Survey Research Center. This included questionnaire development, programming and administration.

Finally, sincere appreciation must be extended to key leaders at the University of Michigan whose support makes SCIP possible including the Office of the President, Office of the Provost, Institute for Social Research, and Graham Sustainability Institute.
