📢Have the youth climate strikes #FridaysforFuture motivated changes in climate-relevant behaviours in the wider population? We find clear indications of the climate movement's transformative impact on some population groups in Switzerland 👇 https://t.co/WGdwUSISni A🧵
A study by @LiviaFritz and @HERUS_EPFL found that Greta Thunberg’s Fridays for Future climate strikes have influenced the environmental behavior of Swiss residents. https://t.co/se2CI2KD5U

Happy to share our new article on climate beliefs and publics' support (or not) for #climate #intervention @GEC_Journal. Excellently led by @LiviaFritz (incl. @BenjaminSovaco1 Sean Low) and great visualizations, as ever, from @ElinaBru. I'll share a couple favorites 🧵

4⃣ Support for CDR and SRM technologies hinges on them being tied to credible system-wide decarbonization efforts + their ability to effectively respond to a variety of climate impacts.

3⃣ Tensions in publics’ reflections on the potential contribution of these technologies to climate action include “buying time vs. delaying action”, “treating the symptoms vs. tackling the root causes”, and “urgency to act vs. effects only in the distant future”.

2⃣ Public perceptions are embedded in three broader narratives about transformation pathways, each reflecting varying notions of responsibility: behavior change-centred pathways, top-down and industry-centred pathways, and technology-centred pathways.

🎯Relying on qualitative data from 44 focus groups, triangulated with a survey in 22 countries, this mixed-methods study examines the role that climate change beliefs and attitudes towards climate action play in the formation of public perceptions of methods for CDR and SRM.

📖The overview paper from our focus groups on SRM is out! With Sean Low, @ChadM_Baum & @BenjaminSovaco1 👇👇👇
👨👨👧👦People in the Global South have stronger hope but broader concerns about #solar #geoengineering than in the Global North; both regions support multilateral coordination and public engagement but are skeptical about #effectiveness. 🔗Read more: https://t.co/ulod2PbGIB
