Why do so many climate change initiatives fail? How can we do more to prevent humans damaging the environment? The Psychology of Climate Change explores the evidence for our changing environment, and suggests that there are significant cognitive biases in how we think about, and act on climate change. The authors examine how organisations have attempted to mobilise the public in the fight against climate change, but these initiatives have often failed due to the public's unwillingness to adapt their behaviour. The book also explores why some people deny climate change altogether, and the influence that these climate change deniers can have on global action to mitigate further damage. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Nature $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Climatic changes. 650 0 $a Environmental psychology. 650 7 $a Climatic changes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00864229 650 7 $a Environmental psychology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00913431 650 7 $a Nature $x Psychological aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01034591 700 1 $a McGuire, Laura, $e author. 830 0 $a Psychology of everything. 941 $a 2 952 $l OPAX566 $d 20200923010221.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508022802.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C92DBCB090F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
