Psychology study unearths ways to bolster global climate awareness and climate action
phys ^ | 02/07/2024

An international team of scientists has created a tool that can aid in increasing climate awareness and climate action globally by highlighting messaging themes shown to be effective through experimental research.

The web-based tool, and the methods undergirding its creation, appear in the journal Science Advances.

The tool stems from a study involving nearly 250 researchers that drew more than 59,000 participants from 63 countries, including Algeria, China, Denmark, Germany, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Peru, and the United States.

"We tested the effectiveness of different messages aimed at addressing climate change and created a tool that can be deployed by both lawmakers and practitioners to generate support for climate policy or to encourage action," says Madalina Vlasceanu, an assistant professor in New York University's Department of Psychology and the paper's lead author.

The tool, which the researchers describe as a "Climate Intervention Webapp," takes into account an array of targeted audiences in the studied countries, ranging from nationality and political ideology to age, gender, education, and income level.

If their theory or point of view was so compelling they would not have to resort to psyops to persuade people.

Consulting with psychologists results in disaster. It is pseudoscience. It’s only “success” is in coming up with ways to make soldiers more willing to kill. Hire these frauds and they will ruin your business.

I certainly practice climate awareness."It's raining today,better bring an umbrella"."It's cold today,better wear my winter coat"."They say tornadoes might occur today,better make sure our flashlights are working".

I was just setting up a charitable organization I work with on a site called “My Giving Circle.” At the end, it gave me an option to put a percentage of the donation towards some sort of carbon off-set program. It was supposed to make my group look better in the eyes of donors. This stuff has really gone too far.

It was either on FR or my local area where the educators of children were told to focus on the emotional side of climate change rather than getting “bogged down” in facts and figures.

This kind of social engineering is doomed to fail. These psychologists are not worthy of the name. Which is good, considering the damage they could do if they were competent.

Psychology Today has as much true “science” as is contained in “climate change” news.

Evidence and logic are not part of the tools used to increase climate awareness.

Brainwashing now and forever.

Climate change is here have no doubt
Too much rain too much drought
Run in circles scream and shout

It’ll cook your brain and freeze your feet
Too much rain too much heat

Snow coming soon no relief in sight
Tornados and floods you better run for your life

Climate change is here better hide in fear.
They need more money or it gets severe

Too much rain too much drought
Run in circles, scream and shout™

Climate alarmist scientists are perfecting how to sell their alarmist propaganda.

The only thing they are perfecting is demonstrating just how week their "science" and their field of study really is.

No sale.
