摘要

极端天气事件会提高人们对环境变化的认识，但此类事件如何影响政治家的行为仍不清楚。通过对欧洲各政党发布的 26 万多份新闻稿采用监督学习算法和差异设计，我们发现除了绿党之外，极端天气事件并不会提高人们对环境问题的关注度。这表明气候变化的后果可能不会直接提高政治关注度。

Extreme weather events do not increase political parties'' environmental attention

Exposure to extreme weather events can make people more aware of environmental changes; however, it remains unclear how such events influence politicians’ behaviour. Combining supervised learning algorithms on over 260,000 press releases by European parties with a difference-in-differences design, we find that apart from Green parties, extreme weather events do not increase attention towards environmental issues. This suggests the consequences of climate change might not directly increase political attention. Addressing the consequences of climate change requires political attention and leadership. However, this study shows that apart from Green parties, political parties do not increase their attention to environmental issues following extreme weather events.
