Im not limiting this belief to climate change. But even for climate change if you slightly change the question from "is climate change real" to "is climate change real and caused by human activity" you fall way closer to 50%. And for people that aren't strongly opiniated, its once again comfort seeking behaviour. "Experts know what they're doing and fix it".

I wanna stress that i dont think its bad to be comfort seeking. Life satisfaction is probably higher, a lot of the time truth can be depressing. And some movements manage to use comfort seeking behaviour (knowingly or unknowingly i cant say) to great effect.

Half of the right wing in america have been convinced of the comfortable lie, that the last election in america was rigged. And that all they have to do is unify and defeat the evil deepstate. Instead of the (depressing to them) truth that they lost because they're standing behind an incompetent president, thats possibly criminal. (criminal part pending actual conviction) That people rallied behind a candidate people werent really that excited about just to defeat trump.

Yes this issue is easily identified in religious fundamentalism. But the trend of people seeking comfort in misinformation is quite troubling in my mind.
