Abstract

Human behavior plays a critical role in causing global climate change as well as in responding to it. In this article, I review important insights on the psychology of climate change. I first discuss factors that affect the likelihood that individuals engage in a wide range of climate actions. Next, I review the processes through which values affect climate actions and reflect on how to motivate climate actions among people who do not strongly care about nature, the environment, and climate change. Then I explain that even people who may be motivated to engage in climate actions may not do so when they face major barriers to act. This implies that to promote wide-scale climate actions, broader system changes are needed. I discuss relevant factors that affect public support for system changes that facilitate and enable climate action. Finally, I summarize key lessons learned and identify important questions for future research.

气候变化心理学。
人类行为在引起全球气候变化以及应对气候变化方面发挥着关键作用。在这篇文章中,我回顾了关于气候变化心理学的重要见解。我首先讨论影响个人参与各种气候行动的可能性的因素。接下来,我回顾了价值观影响气候行动的过程,并思考了如何在不太关心自然、环境和气候变化的人群中激励气候行动。然后我解释说,即使是那些可能有动力参与气候行动的人,当他们面临重大障碍时,也可能不会这样做。这意味着,要促进大规模的气候行动,需要更广泛的系统变革。我讨论了影响公众对促进和实现气候行动的制度变革的支持的相关因素。最后,我总结了关键的经验教训,并确定了未来研究的重要问题。
