“…Another recent study examined the relationship between risk perceptions and the evaluation of climate policy: people with a higher risk perception of negative impacts driving global warming are more likely to support climate policy (Mayer et al, 2017). Finally, a study found that there are connections between the public's knowledge about air pollution and physical health risk perception on the one hand and the willingness to reduce car use on the other hand (Shanyong et al, 2019), which raises the question of whether similar attitudes towards the environment and health are associated with other forms of emission reduction, such as the use of CO 2 -based fuels. There are therefore already comprehensive insights into perception of toxic hazards from different origins.…”

“…Among various kinds of energy and environmental issues, air pollution is of the most public concern [1]. Emissions of conventional fuel vehicles (CFVs) is a major source of air pollution, and the most representative one in recent years is the continuous severe haze weather which has been reported recently in China [2]. Meanwhile, the uptake of CFVs causes growing oil demand, which aggravates the energy shortage problem.…”

“…It was found that for parents of young children an increase in knowledge about health effects of air pollution for children impacts attitudes regarding fossil resource use negatively (Hanus et al, 2018). This perception of possible consequences for human health as a risk target is emphasized by findings of connections between public's knowledge and the willingness to reduce personal car use (Wang et al, 2019). The fear of adverse health effects has proven as an important reason for opposition to novel technologies across a variety of technologies, e.g., mobile phone base stations (Drake, 2006), wind farms (Reusswig et al, 2016), and transmission lines (Nelson et al, 2018).…”
