摘要

气候引发的灾害往往会吸引公众和媒体的注意力，这使其成为政府问责的有效渠道，因为政府可能会因此受到压力而采取行动。公众对某些事件的关注度急剧上升，在很大程度上会影响监管机构的应对措施。巴西经济与金融学院的拉斐尔-阿劳霍（Rafael Araujo）和来自美国的同事研究了 8 月份全球对巴西亚马逊森林火灾关注度的突然飙升。他们利用差分法发现，与同期秘鲁和玻利维亚不太引人注意但类似的火灾相比，全球社会前所未有的公众关注导致该地区的火灾减少了 22%。这种效应在森林覆盖率较高的地区更为明显。回溯计算表明，这一效果避免了 2480 万吨二氧化碳排放，占巴西为实现《巴黎协定》目标而需在 2018 年减少的二氧化碳排放量的 3.86%。作者还讨论了政府行动减少火灾的潜在渠道。
