Attitutes To Climate Change Using A Person-Centered Framework

The EPA published a fascinating review of climate attitudes conducted by researchers at DCU. The work reviewed 4610 studies on climate attitudes, which were then filtered down to 66 studies that were analysed using the Bronfenbrenner person-centred bioecological systems model. The results show that trust in institutions and the beliefs of one's social circle influence one's attitudes to climate change. The review also suggests that purely fact-based climate communication will not work with everyone.
