Individualism

Agree

No

From an individualist perspective, the preference often leans towards limited government intervention in economic and personal affairs. Therefore, the idea that the government should not fund research into geoengineering aligns with the individualist emphasis on market solutions and private sector innovation to address societal challenges, including climate change. Individualists might argue that private companies, motivated by profit and efficiency, are better suited to develop effective geoengineering technologies. However, the score is not strongly positive because individualists might also recognize the potential necessity of some level of government involvement in addressing large-scale challenges like climate change, provided that such involvement does not significantly impede individual freedoms or market dynamics.

Disagree

Yes

Individualism as an ideology emphasizes the moral worth of the individual and prefers minimal government intervention in personal and economic affairs. Funding research into geoengineering as a way to combat climate change would require significant government intervention and resources, which might be seen as contrary to individualist principles that favor market-driven solutions and personal responsibility over government-led initiatives. However, the score is not extremely negative because individualists might support such measures if they are convinced that the benefits to individual freedom and prosperity outweigh the costs of government intervention.
