摘要

本研究探讨艾伯塔省埃德蒙顿社区居住老年人的气候变化知识、态度和经验。采用定性描述方法,39名老年人参加了六个焦点小组中的一个。专题数据分析有助于从与会者的叙述中综合确定三个关键主题:(A)理解气候变化;(b)在管理气候变化方面缺乏领导力;(c)应对气候变化的行动,包括强调个人责任和重视老年人的贡献。老年人的气候变化知识和对气候变化的关注程度各不相同,但他们都致力于环境管理和社区福祉。扩大加拿大老年人了解气候变化和参与气候倡议的机会,将为这一人口和气候变化运动带来多重利益。

Listening to older adults’ perspectives on climate change: Focus group study
  This study explores climate change knowledge, attitudes, and experiences of community-dwelling older adults in Edmonton, Alberta. A qualitative descriptive methodology was used where thirty-nine older adults participated in one of six focus groups. A thematic data analysis helped identify three key themes synthesized from participants’ narratives: (a) Making sense of climate change, (b) lack of leadership in managing climate change; and (c) actions to address climate change that include an emphasis on individual responsibility and valuing the contributions of older adults. Older adults vary in their climate change literacy and levels of concern about climate change but share a commitment to environmental stewardship and community wellbeing. Expanding opportunities for older Canadians to learn about climate change and engage in climate initiatives will bring multiple benefits to this population and to the climate change movement.
