Citizen science and the public nature of climate action
ABSTRACT International efforts to implement the Paris Agreement call for unprecedented levels of collaboration to address one of society’s most pressing crises. In this study we take the position that climate action work is very public work, in that decarbonization requires significant effort to learn together in ways that change commitments to enact environmental stewardship. To better understand this challenge, we examined citizen science as a space where climate action work is also the work of knowledge co-creation. Pre–post experience surveys and interviews with citizen scientists illustrate the transformative potential of place-based climate learning. Findings suggest that the relationships individuals developed with specific scientists and their personalized approaches to conducting science impacted how individuals related to the responsibility of environmental stewardship. This study highlights how effective, impactful collaboration is enriched when professionals share who they are in the context of the climate action work they do.
期刊介绍:
Polar Geographyis a quarterly publication that offers a venue for scholarly research on the physical and human aspects of the Polar Regions. The journal seeks to address the component interplay of the natural systems, the complex historical, political, economic, cultural, diplomatic, and security issues, and the interchange amongst them. As such, the journal welcomes comparative approaches, critical scholarship, and alternative and disparate perspectives from around the globe. The journal offers scientists a venue for publishing longer papers such as might result from distillation of a thesis, or review papers that place in global context results from coordinated national and international efforts currently underway in both Polar Regions.
