Abstract: [Article in WIREs Clim Change 2015, 6:35–61. doi: 10.1002/wcc.321] In the article cited above, on page 51, the following text was presented in the third paragraph, in reference to a study by Scruggs and Benegal (2012): “As part of these findings, they observed that within Europe, there was a very strong association between increases in employment rates and increases in skeptical opinion on a country-by-country basis.” The relevant phrasing should instead be “…increases in unemployment rates…” to correctly convey the findings of this study.
