Areas of consensus and polarization We found high levels of consensus among our respondents on multiple survey items, but also important areas with high levels of polarization (Figure 1; Supplementary Figure 2). As might be expected, the strongest consensus was in agreement that the maintenance of...
The study showed there was strong evidence that numbers of butterfly species had declined in areas with high levels of nitrogen pollution in the 1990s, yet the overall total number of butterflies was not affected. Moths displayed more complex patterns. Increased moth numbers as well as increased ...
