🔥 Hot Take: What’s holding back behavioral research on climate change mitigation? 🌍 Behavioral science has substantial potential for contributing to solving the climate crisis, but I see two critical challenges limiting its impact🧵👇 #ClimateAction #BehavioralScience #Sustainability

Would you pay to protect koala habitats or blue-green spaces like your local lake? Led by @zlevo.bsky.social, we examined whether thinking about high-impact #health or #climate events would make someone more willing to financially support these areas. Read here: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

Now publicly available: the #TISP dataset. It contains 71,922 survey responses on public perceptions of science, science communication, and climate change attitudes in 68 countries. Published in @natureportfolio.bsky.social’s #ScientificData: www.nature.com/articles/s41... 📊

Hi, BlueSky! Delighted to📣 Decolonizing Environmentalism (bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social) is hitting the virtual book-shelf later this month & the bookstores in the new year. We wrote it esp. for the youth environmental & climate activists. Plz help spread the word. www.bloomsbury.com/us/decoloniz...

Great to see the arrival of Climate Outreach 👇👇👇

Hello! We're Climate Outreach - helping everyone from charities to governments to business navigate difficult climate conversations and unlock more ambitious climate action! Interested? Then give us a follow ☺️ Find out more about us on our website: climateoutreach.org

Despite the headline…. “Only Australia arrested climate and environmental protesters at a higher rate than UK police.”

Transformational Science is a team sport. I feel so lucky and grateful to work with people in #climatehealth who inspire and challenge me to do better, to be better, every day. Written with the brilliant Zoe Leviston and Arnagretta Hunter sustainabilitycommunity.springernature.com/posts/new-ac...

Major investigation of offsets projects ('carbon markets') shows only 16% of carbon credits issued constitute real emission reductions Yet countries agreed major new C markets at #COP29 with no obvious tightening of standards Vast majority of offsetting is a scam www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New from me, Samantha Stanley, and @mentaloose.bsky.social, study on Australians’ perceptions of climate policy support. Australians underestimate climate policy support, with some fascinating effects based on voting behaviour. More below 1/ #climatesky www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

THREAD So your Attention Score went down because people are rage-deleting their Twitter accounts. Why is that happening? Should I be worried? Should I see my doctor? Let's get into what the Attention Score actually is, how it's impacted by posts and deletions, WITH THE HELP OF MEMES. 1/20

New research from @mdmarques.com suggests emerging technologies face an uphill battle in a post-truth world.

Co-benefits are an effective way of articulating how health can be embedded in climate and energy efficiency policies. Led by #PhD Zoe in collaboration with policymakers, our work shows that incentivising more ambitious climate policy could improve health and wellbeing. doi.org/10.1088/1748...

For those interested in public attitudes to climate policy, I highly recommend this new engaging short piece in Climatic Change rdcu.be/d0GSM TL;DR Gov’t action out of step with public sentiment, despite what the ‘rise of the right’ may lead many to believe @epgroningen.bsky.social #envpsy

From the NCC article: “a perceived cleavage has appeared between scientists, where one group is charged with pedalling ‘doom-ism’,… the other… described as ‘hopeism’ or ‘techno-optimism’. None of these labels is intended to be flattering” #envpsy

Excellent resource for climate curious peeps making the leap from 'the bad place'.
